Paddy Pimblett is keen on a matchup with Ilia Topuria, seeing it as both a financial opportunity and an avenue for his skills. Their rivalry escalated from a controversial comment about Topuria's home country and a previous altercation at a UFC event. With Topuria set to fight for the lightweight title against Charles Oliveira, Pimblett believes he could be next in line if Topuria wins and calls him out. He has devised a strategy to exploit Topuria's weaknesses, asserting his all-around MMA abilities will give him the edge in a potential clash.
"If Ilia wins and says he wants to fight me, the UFC will make that fight because they know it's a money fight... I know I'd beat him..."
"We've already drawn up a game plan to beat him up. I know how to beat him. No one goes for his weaknesses when he fights them..."
