Paddy Pimblett, ranked #12 in the UFC lightweight division, is focused on securing a title shot with a victory over #7 Michael Chandler at UFC 314. This fight marks his first proper co-main event and Pimblett is confident that defeating Chandler would place him one step away from a title opportunity, similar to Charles Oliveira's path after beating Chandler. Additionally, he expresses interest in a potential matchup with Dustin Poirier, hinting that Poirier’s retirement plans may not be justified as Pimblett feels he could defeat him.
First five-round fight in the UFC, first proper co-main event, when I was co-main event last time I was just move up to it because a fight fell out.
Charles, he just beat Chandler. If Chandler gets a title shot off beating Chandler, then I want a title shot when I beat Chandler.
When I beat Chandler no one can really say anything.
He must be an idiot. I think I beat Dustin Poirier, so I'd love to fight him.
