Pimblett remains undefeated in the UFC following his controversial win against Jared Gordon, which many fans believe was scored unfairly.

In the four fights Pimblett has had in the UFC, the win against Gordon is undeniably his toughest victory yet.

Gordon landed many combinations with his lightning-fast hands in the first two rounds putting in a great performance during the fight at UFC 282. However, with the fight going the distance of the three rounds, the judges ultimately awarded Pimblett the victory with 29-28 scorecards.

After UFC announcer Bruce Buffer announced the decision in the way of Pimblett, you can see Gordon walking away feeling hard done by with many boos and moans in the Las Vegas crowd.

One person that looked like they shared the feelings of the crowd at UFC 282 was Joe Rogan, who looked in shock when “The Baddy” took the win.

Rogan has been spotted at the back of the Octagon in disbelief, before he then questioned the Liverpudlian about the result during his post-fight interview.

Rogan said: “That was a close one.”

Pimblett responded with: “No it wasn’t, it wasn’t close.

“I won the first two rounds, and I coasted in the third.

“I knew I was two rounds up, so I didn’t want to do nothing dangerous and risk losing the fight.

“I knew for a fact I won the first two rounds pretty easily.”

Not sure you’ll have too many people on your side there, Paddy!

Pimblett did say his return might not be soon as he suffered a foot injury during the fight and he was also seen leaving the arena in an ankle brace and being escorted by members of his team.

Pimblett said: “I’m not going to lie, I hurt my right foot in the first round.

“One of the first kicks I threw my right foot is in a bit of pain, I’m going to have to get that X-rayed.”
