Paddy Pimblett needed to make a statement at UFC 304?
Consider that statement made.
Pimblett turned in the best performance of his UFC career on Saturday, choking King Green unconscious — and nearly breaking his arm for good measure — with an electric first-round submission win on the UFC 304 pay-per-view card. Pimblett is now a perfect 6-0 to start his UFC career and called out ranked lightweight Renato Moicano for his next conquest.
Check out how the MMA world reacted to Pimblett’s handiwork at UFC 304 below.

Bobby was already out on that arm bar. Might have gotten some unneeded pops. #ufc304

Wow! I was not expecting it to go down like that! Props to Paddy can’t take away anything from him on that one! #UFC304

Green shooting like that just cost him big… gotta give it to Paddy, though, for making Green uncomfortable on the feet, forcing him to shoot and making a mistake..
Paddy’s grappling is so slick, his transitions are top tier #ufc304
