Saturday’s UFC London event featured a win for popular local fighter Paddy ‘The Baddy’ Pimblett.
He’s about as Liverpudlian as they come and the crowd roared with approval as he overcame Rodrigo Vargas in the first round with a submission victory.
That was just part of the show Pimblett put on. After the fight as part of the standard in-Octagon interview, the scouser took aim at none other than Mark Zuckerberg.
Before Saturday’s event, Pimblett had used social media to draw attention to a young child suffering from cancer.
For further context, here’s Marca:
In one of his posts on Instagram and Facebook, there were bullies who made some horrible comments about the kid. That’s where Paddy drew the line and responded with some off-putting words.
Both of the social media outlets decided to ban Pimblett first before banning the comments against the kid, which were far more offensive than what the UFC star made.
When asked when and who he wants to fight again (1:50 into the video below), Pimblett decided it was time to call Zuck out:
‘Justice for the 97’ refers to the victims of the Hillsborough disaster in April 1989.
Here’s the Zuckerberg clip in isolation:

I doubt he’ll get anywhere near the Meta billionaire but if he did, there may be similar scenes to how Pimblett earned his win in London:

One thing is for sure – I’m definitely not alone in saying I would pay to see Pimblett and Zuckerberg square off.
