Tom Aspinall completely violated Paddy Pimblett during UFC 304 media day in a savage moment.

Interim UFC heavyweight champion Aspinall and UFC lightweight star Pimblett return to action at this weekend's stacked UFC 304 from Manchester, England.

Aspinall defends his title against former foe Curtis Blaydes in the co-main event while Pimblett faces MMA veteran King Green on the main-card.

And the pair of fighters spoke to the assembled media on Wednesday ahead of UFC 304.

Pimblett opened up about his mental health struggles in a candid and brave admission.

Aspinall followed the Scouser and savaged his fellow Englishman in a hilarious moment.

After picking up the mic, he joked: "By the way, who was sat here last?

A member of the media replied: "Paddy."

To which the UFC heavyweight phenom added: "Smells a bit strange up here..."

Pimblett aims to record the sixth win of his UFC career when he faces Green at UFC 304.

As for Aspinall, he'll look to make the maiden defence of his interim championship when he rematches Blaydes.

And he views his second meeting with the American as the hardest fight of his career.

"The guy’s been in the top five, top 10 for a long time," he said. "He’s done basically everything there is to do apart from win a title.

"So, I respect him a lot, and I respect what he’s all about. I respect him as a person, as an athlete, everything, and I have taken him very seriously in the build-up, and I’m taking this fight very, very seriously. I’m not looking past him at all."

Aspinall's sole defeat in the UFC came to Blaydes as their bout ended in unfortunate fashion.

He blew his knee out in the opening minute as he looks for redemption at UFC 304.
