Paddy Pimblett Reveals Weight One Week After UFC 314
Following his dominant performance over Michael Chandler last weekend, Paddy Pimblett has certainly enjoyed being out of training. Fans have become accustomed to the Brit gaining loads of weight after his fights.
Speaking to Bruce Buffer, Paddy Pimblett said, “I’m like 195 (pounds). On Sunday, I had about five milkshakes after the fight. This morning I think I woke up at 190, which is fat, but that’s about the heaviest I get.”
“I don’t really touch 200, only in the States. In the States, that food just makes me into a machine. I’m just massive in the States, but when I’m back in the U.K., the highest I’ll be is like 195 or something like that.”
Paddy Pimblett went on to say, “In the UK, if I go to a restaurant, I order a Coca-Cola, I just get that one Coca-Cola. In The States, and there’s still this much of my Coca-Cola left, and they come over and take it and put a brand new one, and I’m just like, ‘I got a full coke.’”
