Paddy Pimblett (20-3) uttalar sig om sin omdebatterade domslutsseger mot Jared Gordon (19-6).
”Fights are scored on damage now.”
Paddy Pimblett tog hem sin sjätte raka vinst i natt när han gick tiden ut mot Jared Gordon. Efter att domslutet lästes upp uppstod en viss förvirring hos somliga som tyckte att matchen skulle gått till Gordon.
Paddy tyckte personligen att det var en självklar seger, på press-konferensen efter sade att domarna dömer efter skada, och att han orsakade mer skada än Gordon.
Look at his face and look at mine. Fights are scored on damage now.
When he started pushing me against the cage, I was like, ‘Let’s chill.’ And then, I was landing more significant strikes with me back against the cage. I think he landed three or four significant strikes in the third round. I was landing knees to the body, knees to the face, little elbows, little punches.
I en annan intervju, med Aaron Bronsteter, berättade han om sin frustration kring de som påstår att domslutet var ett rån.
I’m a nice guy, why does everyone hate me?
I’m pretty pissed off to be honest, that Joe Rogan came in and said that was a close fight. It wasn’t a split decision, it was a unanimous decision, so I’m pretty pissed off that people thought I lost, it’s annoying me. It’s annoying me a lot.
