Paddy Pimblett Announces October Fight in Abu Dhabi

MMA

Popular British lightweight UFC fighter Paddy Pimblett has revealed his intentions to step back into the octagon this October. The planned return is set for a tournament event in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Pimblett stated regarding his next appearance: “I will definitely fight again this year. Even before the fight with Chandler, I planned to fight in Abu Dhabi in October. There`s always a pay-per-view tournament held there in October. I think it will be the perfect time for a comeback. Over the summer, I will regain my strength, train every day, lose weight, and return to camp in August.”

His most recent bout took place on April 13 at UFC 314, where Pimblett secured a victory by knocking out Michael Chandler.
