Soren Bak claims coins were thrown at him before Paddy Pimblett title fight

Soren Bak claims that the crowd in the Echo Arena hurled coins at him as he waited for Paddy Pimblett to join him in the cage for their vacant lightweight title clash in Liverpool, England on Saturday at Cage Warriors 96.

Bak had to overcome a series of submission attempts from Pimblett in the first round before regaining momentum and winning the title bout in front of the adoring home crowd of “The Paddy”.

Speaking after being crowned Cage Warriors lightweight champion, Bak revealed that Pimblett’s submission attempts were not the only things he had to dodge ahead of his big win.
