UFC star Paddy Pimblett has made a sensational claim that Logan Paul would never be able to walk again if they ever met inside the cage.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The British sensation scored his biggest career win in a unanimous decision over Tony Ferguson at UFC 296.<\/p>\n
Pimblett showed his grappling prowess through 15 minutes to score 30-27 in all three judges’ score cards.<\/p>\n
As for Paul, the American recently secured his first WWE title after beating wrestling legend Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel to claim the United States Championship.<\/p>\n
Paul, 28, has called out the English MMA fighter before. Speaking on his podcast, the American said: ‘You know who I want to fight actually?<\/p>\n

Paddy Pimblett claims Logan Paul would never ‘walk again’ if they went head-to-head in the cage<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Paul, who recently won his first WWE title, has called for a fight with the English MMA star\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘Because that b**** a** Andrew Tate won’t fight me, give me Pimblett, give me Paddy ‘The Baddy.”\u00a0<\/p>\n
Pimblett issued a strong warning for the WWE star and claims that he will ‘snap his knee ligament in 12 places.’<\/p>\n
Appearing on the Happy Hour Podcast, the Englishman said: ‘I’ll snap his ankle for him, I’ll snap his knee ligament in 12 places so he’ll never walk again, the big juicehead.<\/p>\n
‘He’s a proper tool, he needs to stick to wrestling, he needs to stick to like fake fighting.<\/p>\n
‘Him and Dillon Danis was probably staged as well, Dillon Danis threw more punches at the security guard than he did in six rounds at Logan Paul.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Pimblett was of course referring to Paul’s recent boxing showdown against MMA fighter Dillon Danis – which Logan won\u00a0via disqualification after Danis tried to tackle him to the floor.<\/p>\n
Before UFC 296, the 28-year-old won six straight including his first four bouts in the UFC. Pimblett finished five of those fights, scoring two knockouts and three submissions.<\/p>\n
The English fighter now holds a 21-3 MMA record with six knockouts. However, fans continue to question his last decision win over Jared Gordon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
British UFC star Paddy Pimblett scored a unanimous decision over Tony Ferguson at UFC 296<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Pimblett controlled Ferguson on the ground for most of the fight to secure three 30-27cards<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The criticism appeared to fuel Pimblett to perform well against Ferguson.<\/p>\n
‘I feel better,’ Pimblett said. ‘I’m still a little bit disappointed that I did not get the finish but I’m glad with myself.’<\/p>\n
