Paddy Pimblett would like to change one rule in UFC fights.
The UFC currently doesn’t allow stomps, kicks and knees to the head of a grounded opponent. While Pimblett (23-3) understands that stomps are illegal, he would prefer that soccer kicks and knees to the head of a grounded opponent be legalized. “The Baddy” wants fighters to be punished if they shoot a lazy takedown to get some rest.
"Soccer kicks and knees to the head of a grounded opponent,” Pimblett recently told Tom Aspinall. “… I don't agree with stomping because your head's got nowhere to go, but a soccer kick where someone's sitting in guard and you can move the legs and kick them there, and knees to the head of the grounded opponent, so if someone shoots a sloppy takedown just to get a break, you should be able to knee them in the head.
