UFC fans have been left in disbelief after seeing Paddy Pimblett just weeks before the biggest fight of his career against Michael Chandler.
In just two weeks, MMA fans will be treated to the return of both former champion Alexander Volkanovski and the ever-popular Pimblett at UFC 314 in Miami, Florida.
Volkanovski will look to regain his featherweight title in a fight against Diego Lopes while Pimblett faces Michael Chandler in the co-main event of the evening.

With fight week approaching, fans had a brief glimpse at home Pimblett's physique is looking before the bout with Chandler, and it's safe to say they are completely shocked.
Two weeks ago, the UFC held a fight night event in London, headlined by former welterweight champion Leon Edwards and opponent Sean Brady.
Pimblett's close friend and Next Generation MMA teammate Molly McCann also featured on the card, in what would be her last UFC fight, meaning 'The Baddy' attended the event to support her.

And in a vlog of his time at the London event, Pimblett gave fans in insight into how his body is looking ahead of the bout with Chandler, and fans are impressed.
Although the 30-year-old has become known for putting on a massive amount of weight between fights, forcing him to go through a severe weight cut in order to make 155lbs, this isn't the case for Chandler as Pimblett is boasting an impressive six-pack.
Reacting to the footage, one fan wrote in the comments: "Paddy's looking READY to sleep Chandler. Let's get it!"
Another agreed, adding: "Looking like he’s in phenomenal shape."

While one added: "People saying he’s not dedicated and will never be ranked now desperately trying to find the next thing to discredit him for."
UFC London proved to be an emotional evening for Pimblett, as not only did McCann lose her fight via submission in the first round, but she also decided to hang up the gloves and retire from the sport.
In an emotional exchange with her close friend after her fight, she explained: "It’s just time for me now, lad,
