“Everyone has an opinion. Opinions are like asses: everyone has it,” Pimblett told reporters after UFC 282. “I know I won this fight. Everything is simple. I rely on the facts and I won by unanimous decision. It’s not even a separate solution. Look at his face and look at mine. Control means nothing. Fights are now judged by damage, and I did a lot more damage. End of story. And all the dissatisfied can lick my ass “
The second most important event in the number event, the lightweight bout between Paddy Pimblett and Jared Gordon went the full distance and ended 29-28 three times in favor of the Briton, who had not looked his best all three rounds.
Probably the only one who was not surprised by the referee’s decision was the president of the UFC, Dana White, who said that the American himself was to blame for his defeat, since he decided to take the third round with little blood.
