The co-main event at UFC 314 features a highly anticipated lightweight clash between Michael Chandler and Paddy Pimblett at the Kaseya Center in Miami this Saturday.
Michael Chandler, ranked No. 14 in the lightweight division, aims to be the first to defeat Paddy Pimblett in the UFC. A former three-time Bellator lightweight champion, Chandler has a mixed UFC record with two wins in six fights. Despite his record, “Iron Mike” is a fan favorite known for his consistently exciting and action-packed performances.
Paddy Pimblett sees this fight as another opportunity to overcome an experienced veteran. The Liverpool native has recently secured wins against seasoned fighters King Green and Tony Ferguson, notably submitting Green for the first time since 2009. A victory on Saturday, improving his UFC record to 7-0, could propel Pimblett into the top 10 rankings.
This matchup promises to be a thrilling contest as part of the UFC 314 event.
