Critics have long questioned whether his skills could match his mouth, especially against the division&rsquo;s elite. The doubters grew louder with each fight, claiming Pimblett was being protected by the <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/mma\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC<\/a> with favorable matchups. Last night at UFC 314, those critics were forced to eat a healthy serving of humble pie as Pimblett put on the performance of his career.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">THE KING OF THE NORTH &#128081;<br><br>Paddy Pimblett earns the Round 3 TKO for the biggest win in his career!<br><br>[ <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/UFC314?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#UFC314<\/a> | LIVE NOW on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ESPNPlus?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@ESPNPlus<\/a> PPV ] <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2vC9ygf7Nv\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/2vC9ygf7Nv<\/a><\/p>&mdash; UFC (@ufc) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ufc\/status\/1911272638997209232?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>April 13, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Going into his co-main event clash with Michael Chandler, many believed Pimblett had finally bitten off more than he could chew. Chandler, a former Bellator champion and UFC title challenger, represented a massive step up in competition. The betting odds were close, but the court of public opinion seemed to favor the explosive American. What followed was nothing short of a statement victory as Pimblett dominated Chandler before finishing him in the third round with a vicious combination of a jumping knee and ground strikes that left the veteran bloodied and beaten.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/ufc-314-main-card-results-who-won-the-ufc-314-main-card-fights-last-night\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC 314 Main Card Results: Who Won The UFC 314 Main Card Fights Last Night?<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Paddy Pimblett Silences Doubters, Calls Out Next Opponent<\/h2><p>The physically imposing performance against Chandler answered many questions about Pimblett&rsquo;s cardio, striking defense, and ability to hang with the division&rsquo;s elite (and his chin as well). No longer can opponents or fans question whether his popularity exceeds his talent. The scouser didn&rsquo;t just squeak by with a decision, he thoroughly dismantled a perennial contender in devastating fashion.<\/p><p>In the aftermath of his seventh straight UFC victory, Pimblett didn&rsquo;t miss the opportunity to address his critics. With blood still fresh on the canvas, &lsquo;The Baddy&rsquo; grabbed the microphone from Joe Rogan and delivered a speech that was equal parts celebration and vindication.<\/p><p><strong><em>&ldquo;Anyone in the top 4, top 5. I want that world title. Laugh al you want who say i will never be champ&hellip; But what now, you gang of mushrooms&hellip;I respect Dustin, Justin and Charles. Charles is the biggest legend out of them all and he gets called the best submission artist the UFC&rsquo;s ever seen, well I dispute that. I&rsquo;m here, so me versus Charles.&rdquo;<\/em><\/strong><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Paddy Pimblett Octagon Interview | UFC 314\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ifltvspPN0k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Rather than rest on his newfound legitimacy, Pimblett immediately set his sights on bigger game: Charles Oliveira. The potential matchup makes sense from a stylistic standpoint, pitting two of the division&rsquo;s most dangerous submission specialists against each other in what would surely produce fireworks.<\/p><p>With his victory at UFC 314, Pimblett has elevated himself from entertaining sideshow to legitimate title contender. The UFC rankings will soon reflect this reality as &lsquo;The Baddy&rsquo; enters the top 10 next week. Whether his next opponent is Oliveira or another top-ranked lightweight, one thing is certain. Paddy Pimblett has proven he belongs among the elite!<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: UFC News &ndash; X)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paddy Pimblett goes off on his doubters in the post fight interview as he calls out his next challenge after beating Micheal Chandler!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":39567,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1783],"tags":[2351,3215,3191],"class_list":["post-39556","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mma","tag-michael-chandler","tag-paddy-pimblett","tag-ufc-314"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>&quot;What Now, You Gang Of Mushrooms?&quot; - Paddy Pimblett Taunts Haters, Calls Out Everyone In The Top 5 For His Next Fight!
