Paddy Pimblett thinks that if he becomes the undisputed UFC lightweight kingpin, then Alexander Volkanovski might move up and face him in pursuit of two-division glory.
The Baddy’ will fight Justin Gaethje at UFC 324 for the interim lightweight strap in champion Ilia Topuria’s absence. If Topuria’s return is delayed amidst his divorce proceedings, he might either vacate or be stripped. Hence, the soon-to-be-crowned interim champion at UFC 324 could be upgraded to the undisputed status.
‘The Baddy’ has his sights on the undisputed gold and believes that once he becomes the champion, Volkanovski will move up to fight him.
