Paddy Pimblett is packing on the pounds again after the biggest win of his career.
“The Baddy” has earned a reputation for putting on drastic amounts of weight in between fights and that reputation is in no danger of going away following his big win over King Green this past July at UFC 304. Pimblett needed a little over three minutes to submit Green—just the third fighter ever to defeat the 50-fight veteran in that matter—and he has clearly allowed himself to celebrate the achievement.
On Sunday, Pimblett shared his latest vlog, in which he showed how he has gone from his weigh-in weight of 156 pounds to 198 pounds in a matter of weeks.
Pimblett has never missed weight at 155 pounds and rarely shows concern for his dramatic body changes, but that doesn’t mean he’s been able to avoid ridicule and criticism.
“All to my face, though,” Pimblett said of the weight gain. “That’s why everyone does call me [Family Guy character] Chris Griffin. Right to my face.
“Know what did my head in the other day? Someone calling me a weight bully. ‘He should move up in weight. He’s a weight bully.’ Are you made? Imagine me fighting f*cking Leon Edwards, and [Kamaru] Usman, and that. They’re f*cking massive.”
Pimblett himself joked that he felt he was packing 205-pound power in his return to training.
“That light heavyweight power,” Pimblett said. “90kg.”
As for how he plans to manage his weight in the future, the 29-year-old Englishman doesn’t think there’s any secret to maintaining consistency. He plans to keep bulking up and then working it off the old-fashioned way.
“Probably start getting called fat f*ck by everyone,” Pimblett said. “Didn’t do too bad. Didn’t do great, though, at the same time. Still a bit chubby. I’’m not as fat as I have been but I’m still a bit chubby. We were eating all sorts. ... But I just need to train, that’s the main thing. Obviously, eating copious amounts of food doesn’t help with your weight, but when I don’t train, I put weight on.”
