Footage has emerged last night following lightweight prospect, Paddy Pimblett’s questionable and contentious unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) over Jared Gordon at UFC 282 – of promotional color-commentator, Joe Rogan scoffing at the Octagon-side judges’ scorecards.
Co-headlining UFC 282 against New York native, Gordon, Pimblett managed to maintain his undefeated record under the banner of the promotion, nabbing a debated unanimous decision victory over the former – adding to prior successes against Luigi Vendramini, Kazula Vargas, and Jordan Leavitt.
Suffering notable punishment in the first and second round of his co-main event slot against Gordon, Pimblett remained confident that the judges sitting Octagon-side made the right decision to hand him a unanimous decision victory, questioning how anyone could score the fight in favor of the former.

Reacting to calls that he was gifted a decision win over Gordon, Pimblett speculated that those calls only surfaced from people who did not like him.
“I’m a bit annoyed after people saying they thought I lost,” Paddy Pimblett said on the UFC 282 post-fight show. “I’m pretty annoyed, to be honest. But I’m 4-0 in the UFC – haters going to hate, you’ve got to get on with it.”
“It’s not as though it was a split decision victory,” Paddy Pimblett explained. “But I’ll be honest, I thought I won the first two [rounds], and I took the third round off. It’s my own stupid fault – you should never take a round off, thinking you’re two rounds up. It goes without saying.” (Transcribed by MMA Fighting)
Before his Octagon debut back in September of last year, Pimblett held the undisputed Cage Warriors featherweight crown during his tenure with the Graham Boylan-led organization.

Remaining undefeated in his promotional tenure, polarizing lightweight contender, Paddy Pimblett manages to land a close, and questionable unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) win over Jared Gordon, in tonight’s UFC 282 co-headlining bout.
Riding a three-fight winning run into tonight’s co-main event with Gordon during his time with the promotion, Pimblett found himself on the receiving end of some significant punishment in the opening round from New York native, Gordon.
Absorbing a slew of left hooks throughout both the first and second frame, Pimblett was unsuccessful from three attempted takedowns against Gordon — with the latter landing three successful takedowns of his own, as well as out-striking the Liverpool native in terms of total and significant strikes. Despite his early work and stride midway through the bout, Gordon found himself on the wrong side of a unanimous decision scorecard, with Pimblett remaining unbeaten in the UFC.
