Paddy Pimblett accuses ‘proper sh*t human being’ Bobby Green of lying after UFC 304 booking
Paddy Pimblett had some choice words for Bobby Green.
Pimblett (21-3 MMA, 5-0 UFC) takes on Green (32-15-1 MMA, 13-10-1 UFC) on July 27 at UFC 304 (ESPN+ pay-per-view) from Co-op Live in Manchester, England.
After battering Jim Miller at UFC 300, a fired-up Green took umbrage with Pimblett mentioning his name and proceeded to call him out. He got his wish, but Pimblett denies ever talking about Green first.
āHeās a proper tool, lad,ā Pimblett told The Mac Life. āHeās a proper weapon. The funniest one is he says he mentioned me. I didnāt mention you. You mentioned me first. So then I mentioned you, you little sausage.
āEveryone talks about me, so itās all the same. Heās just a proper tool, lad. I think heās a proper sh*t human being. Heās just a proper wanker, lad. Heās saying that I mentioned him first. Heās just lying. Why would I mention you? Why would I mention Bobby Green, lad?ā
Pimblett praised Greenās striking but thinks his recent knockout loss to Jalin Turner this past December impacted his chin ā and plans on capitalizing on that.
āHeās got very good striking,ā Pimblett said. āHeās got good hands, but his chinās gone after what happened with Jalin Turner. Jim Millerās no knockout artist, and he wobbled him once or twice in that fight on UFC 300. I think that is off Jalin Turner absolutely obliterating Bobby Greenās skull into the canvas.
āHis strikingās very good, his takedown defense is good, and thatās what heās going to try and do. Heās just going to try and use his takedown defense to keep it on the feet because he thinks heāll outstrike me. As I say, his chinās gone, so strike with me. Weāll see what happens. I can see me knocking him out. I can see me submitting him.ā
