The fighter from Liverpool also revealed that he suffered a slight injury during the fight.

“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,” Pimblett added.

After his latest victory, Pimblett remains undefeated since making his UFC debut in September 2021.
