Paddy Pimblett embraced Max Holloway after jokingly telling Dana White he’d fight him at UFC 329

Paddy Pimblett has given fans a take a look at what being backstage at UFC 329 was like.

Considered one of the largest events of the yr this past weekend saw the highest two fights end in only over two combined minutes.

Paddy Pimblett stole the show by submitting Benoit Saint Denis in only 52 seconds to rebound from his first UFC loss in emphatic fashion.

Max Holloway was left feeling unfulfilled after the essential event despite also winning in quick fashion, but that didn’t stop him from being filled with praise for his fellow lightweight, ‘The Baddy’.

Following UFC 329, Paddy Pimblett is only one spot below Max Holloway within the lightweight rankings because of the most effective win of his profession.

A video posted on the Brit’s YouTube channel showed that Holloway’s name got here up during Pimblett’s backstage conversation with Dana White.

Having taken only one significant strike within the bout, he joked with the UFC president while eating pizza that he’d step back contained in the Octagon to face ‘Blessed’.

“Do you would like me to get in with Max now? I’ll get in with Max now in the event you want?,” he said.

Pimblett got here face-to-face with Holloway afterward within the video when making his exit from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

The previous UFC featherweight and BMF champion called out to ‘The Baddy’ and walked towards him along with his arm outstretched before they embraced.

“Congrats, brother,” Holloway said. “That was f—— sick, bro. That was sick.”

The winner of the essential event by some means took even less damage than Pimblett because of the injury that Conor McGregor suffered because the bout began.

Despite this, Holloway has said he plans on returning next yr because of the short turnaround that he made with the intention to fight in March and July.
