Michael Chandler has addressed his loss to Paddy Pimblett at UFC 314, highlighting the challenges he faced during the fight. Unable to find his rhythm, Chandler acknowledged Pimblett's effective game plan that led to his TKO in Round 3. Although it marked Chandler's third consecutive defeat, he has expressed no excuses, instead praising his opponent's strategy and performance. Chandler’s remarks suggest a willingness to learn from the defeat, while Pimblett appears to be on the cusp of a title shot in the lightweight division.
It’s one of those deals where you learn. Hat’s off to Paddy, he had a great gameplan, went out there and got the win, admitted the former UFC Lightweight Title challenger.
For Pimblett, who could face Arman Tsarukyan in a summer showdown, he moves closer to a UFC Lightweight Title shot. Next year could be the year that The Baddy' gets his hands on UFC gold for the very first time.
