Drew Dober would love the chance to fight Paddy Pimblett when the UFC returns to London in March but isn’t convinced the promotion would ever book it.
Drew Dober will look to make it three in a row on Saturday night when he steps into the Octagon with the returning ‘King’ Bobby Green. Dober scored back-to-back knockouts against Terrance McKinney and Rafael Alves in his last two outings. He’ll go for a third in the promotion’s final event of 2022, but Dober already has his sights set on a big fight for 2023.
Speaking at the UFC Vegas 66 media event, Dober shared his desire to square off with fast-rising lightweight star Paddy Pimblett when the promotion returns to London in March. While that would certainly be a fun matchup for fans, Drew Dober is not convinced that Dana White and company would ever let it happen.
“No, the UFC will not let me fight him. Let’s be honest, we watched his last fight and we know what I’m capable of. That would be a fun one,” Dober said. “I just want to fight in London at that O2 Arena. So if Paddy says yes I’m all for it. But we all know that we’ve got Dana, the UFC, and all those guys, they won’t let that happen.”

Drew Dober’s interest in a fight with Pimblett is hot on the heels of the Liverpudlian’s victory over Jared ‘Flash’ Gordon in the UFC 282 co-main event. ‘The Baddy’ was handed a highly questionable unanimous decision victory. Sharing his thoughts on the outcome, Dober believes that Paddy Pimblett’s star power played a significant role in the judges’ decision.
“I mean, I gotta go back and watch it again,” Dober said. “There is a lot of talking. My opinion on the entire matter is there’s something to star power in the judges’ decisions. We’re watching Octagon control and effectiveness and all this other stuff, star power is something you’ve also got to get over. So when you’re fighting a guy as big as Paddy, you’ve got to do more than just five more punches, you know?” (h/t BJPenn.com).
Practically everyone has weighed in on the controversial decision with Michael Bisping, Aljamain Sterling, Henry Cejudo, Chael Sonnen, Chris Weidman, ‘Big’ John McCarthy, Anthony Smith, Joe Rogan, and Dominick Cruz all going on record believing Jared Gordon was the rightful winner of the co-main clash. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Brendan Schaub believes Paddy Pimblett is a future UFC champion despite a less-than-spectacular showing at UFC 282.
‘The Baddy’ is coming off his fourth straight win inside the Octagon, but it wasn’t without a healthy dose of controversy. Going a full 15 minutes with Jared ‘Flash’ Gordon in the co-main event feature last Saturday, practically everyone on the face of the planet had Gordon scoring the massive upset. The three judges presiding over the bout had a different opinion, awarding Pimblett the victory 29-28 on all scorecards. It was immediately dubbed by many as one of the worst decisions in UFC history.
Speaking on his ‘The Schaub Show’ podcast, former UFC heavyweight competitor Brendan Schaub still believes Paddy Pimblett will be a world champion one day but suggests that the Liverpudlian didn’t deliver his best stuff in his last Octagon appearance.
“His fame [outweighs] his talent. Will he get there? Yes he will,” stated Schaub on his podcast. “If they take the necessary steps, I fully believe that Paddy will be world champion. He has the mindset for it. I also love how people were saying, ‘Paddy isn’t ready for the big show!’, okay. Do your homework on Paddy Pimblett.”

“He was selling out giant venues in Liverpool on his own in Cage Warriors before he got to the UFC. So, that doesn’t work, the kid shows up when the pressure is on. The Paddy Pimblett [vs.] Jared Gordon fight was more of a factor of how damn good Jared Gordon is. Paddy Pimblett when he faced an adversary in Jared Gordon who is very skilled, Paddy got away from what made Paddy special. He stopped doing the unconventional stuff, he went back to just striking. He would do some grappling but really he got into a striking battle, and Paddy on the feet isn’t special.”
Between his out-of-left-field feud with renowned MMA journalist Ariel Helwani and telling Joe Rogan his fight with Jared Gordon “wasn’t close,” Paddy Pimblett has done himself no favors when it comes to staying in the good graces of MMA fans. In the end, Schaub believes ‘The Baddy’ simply needs to stick to what makes him unique inside the Octagon. Over time, fans will come around and Pimblett will continue to flourish.
“Paddy being unconventional and being hard to train for is what makes Paddy special. So he got away from that against Jared Gordon because Jared Gordon is that damn good. Kudos to Jared Gordon, and it was a close fight” (h/t BJPenn.com)
