Topuria on Pimblett’s defeat: “Little sausage, all you had to do was defeat a 38-year-old man”
Spanish fighter Ilia Topuria ridiculed Briton Paddy Pimblett on social networks after losing to American Justin Gaethje in the main fight at UFC 324 in Las Vegas.
Gaethje defeated Pimblett by unanimous decision to become the interim UFC lightweight champion. Topuria, the holder of a full title, took a break from his career for personal reasons.
“Little sausage, all you had to do was defeat a 38-year-old man.” You just missed out on the biggest payday of your life. You’d be rich if you won. Justin, all I can say is congratulations… and also, get ready, but in any case, you’re already in the air,” Topuria wrote.
The 37-year-old Gaethje won 27 victories and suffered five defeats in MMA. Pimblett, 31, has 23 wins and four losses.
