Paddy Pimblett, a young emerging star in the UFC, has undergone a significant shift over the previous nine years—quite literally.

During his tenure with Cage Warriors, where he held the featherweight championship for a period, “Paddy the Baddy” twice turned down opportunities to sign with Dana White’s organisation. Last September in Las Vegas, he finally made his UFC debut with a brutal performance against the Brazilian Luigi Vendramini.
With 35 seconds left in the first round, Pimblett submitted his opponent, earning “Performance of the Night” honour and sending a strong message to the lightweight class. This Saturday, he will once again be the favourite to defeat Vargas.
But before the fight, he responded on Twitter to a photo shared by @DiaztwinsMMA that contrasted his frame in 2021 with that of 2013, when he had only been competing in mixed martial arts for a year. He replied, “Told yas, I been doing this since I was a toddler.
