It is a huge match in store for Liverpool favorite ‘Paddy the Baddy’, who wants to prove that he belongs to the top light weights in his first outing in a beautiful first round entry by King Green on UFC 304 in Manchester last summer.
Pimblett, currently arranged on NO12 in a division ruled by the rule of pound -Pond NO1 Islam Makhachev, has been unbeaten in his six UFC fights so far after the decision Tony Ferguson and Jared Gordon wins -whose last was to lose very unhappy.
But the 30-year-old is confronted with a clear step in a five-round test against Chandler, the triple Bellator Lightweight Champion who tried to fight against Conor McGregor for two years before he finally returned with a decision-defeat in a rematch with Charles Oliveira on UFC 309 in New York.
Much fanfare initially greeted the tough and competent American from Bellator to the UFC in 2021, but he does not touch the heights since his opening of the first round of Dan Hooker, after he had only defeated Ferguson and four of his last five loses it at a very high level opposition in Oliveira (twice), Justin Poir.
Step Up: Michael Chandler should prove to be Pimblett’s heaviest opponent so far in the UFC
