Toughness on display in defeat Pimblett came up short in his quest for the Interim UFC Lightweight Championship on Saturday, falling to Justin Gaethje via unanimous decision (47-48, 46-49, 46-49) at UFC 324 in L...

Impact It's not going to make Pimblett feel any better, but the toughness he showed in this fight will be talked about for years to come. Gaethje just kept unloading for 25 minutes, firing away everything but the kitchen sink and Paddy somehow not only hung around, but also managed to to return fire and generate more than his fair share of offense. In addition to all Gaethje's shots, he survived two accidental eye pokes and a borderline low blow. Paddy appeared supremely conditioned, which is the only way you have any chance of remaining relevant in a war such as this one. Pimblett gets a bunch of flack for his antics, most of which occurred earlier in his career. He appears to have taken things much more seriously of late and like it or not, the guy is a clear world-class fighter in arguably the most loaded division in the sport. This was his first setback in eight UFC appearances.
