“Paddy Pimblett is better than you think,” Michael Chandler Says Fans Are Underestimating Athlete in Interim Showdown

MMA veteran Michael Chandler has said that he believes Paddy Pimblett is better than a lot of people realize as we get closer and closer to UFC 324.

Later this month, Paddy Pimblett will square off with Justin Gaethje in the main event of UFC 324. The two men will fight over the UFC interim lightweight championship, and the overwhelming expectation is that the winner will go on to challenge Ilia Topuria for the undisputed belt at some point later this year.

Everyone knows what Justin Gaethje brings to the table and because of the wins he has picked up over the years, a lot of fans and pundits believe he has a great chance of overcoming Paddy Pimblett.
