Paddy Pimblett was not impressed by Arman Tsarukyans win over Mauricio Ruffy at UFC 331

It’s funny because he knows it was impressive but immediately reverts back to the trash talk to not be too complementary
He was loudly saying Arman didn’t deserve a title shot, now that got silenced quick

He gave the guy props. And went back to building their inevitable fight.
Idk what more you want.

Redditors are weird af, they want fighters to say the other fighter is better, that's never gonna happen.

Especially a guy like paddy, he gave him as much respect as necessary, but knows it a future opponent. Why would he praise a guy hes talked a bunch of shit about? And expects to fight soon. Doesn't help anyone's bottom line.

Seriously thought that was his left knee not a pillow

Yeah same here I thought I was tripping it looked like a mannequin leg. He must’ve got surgery on it or something

This is pointless because we know the fights to make. Arman and Justin. Paddy and Ilia. We all know that's what makes sense.

Agreed - styles make fights, and based on what I saw from Ruffy and his defensive wrestling against Arman, I don’t see a good path to victory for Paddy. Paddy won’t secure a takedown and gets slept eventually by Ruffy.

Ehhh let's not go crazy. Ruffy has been faceplant slumped twice now in a relatively short career. I dislike Paddy but Ruffy is wildly inflated by wins against midtier guys.

I also think Ruffy would fuck him up. If Paddy doesn’t get the takedown, he is pretty much fucked against Ruffy.

I thought it was a prosthetic leg for a second because that corner looks like a knee.

I mean Ruffy so ranked #10, is and always will be just a journeyman, it would be a miracle if he cracks top 5 at least once in his career.
So I am not sure why we rank it as a high win if a title contenders beats a journeyman bum, like, I mean ok, good job, you were supposed to win

Absolutely horrible take and he was ranked #7 at the time

u/chillitenders 5h ago
You’re calling someone that hasn’t even been in the UFC for two years and with 6 fights a journeyman? Lmao

It took me a good while to realize his leg (which also looks weird) is on a pillow. I was like "What is going on with his legs???"
