“Everyone wants to fight me,” Pimblett concluded. “I’ll give him his due, it was a good knockout, it was a very good knockout,” Pimblett said. A punch and hand sanitizer bottle were exchanged during the quick incident and both men went on to win their fights — Topuria scoring a violent second-round knockout of Jai Herbert ( watch highlights). Still early into his UFC run, “The Baddy” has already begun taking a business approach to his career and intends on doing so going forward. I think I proved tonight that I earned a new contract. Unsurprisingly, Pimblett confirmed that the number was false.
