Paddy Pimblett Fight: Paddy Pimblett has once again proved why he is one of the UFC's exciting and rapidly growing stars.
On Saturday night, the 30-year-old fighter gave a dominant performance at UFC 314.
With an unfair third-round TKO against Michael Chandler in the co-main event at the Kaseya Center, Pimblett remained his UFC undefeated record.
Round 3's finish time was 3:07. Pimblett made the switch to mount and started throwing a number of 12-to-6 elbows.
Chandler didn't know how to respond. When the referee stepped in, he called it. At the beginning of the last round, the end was really in sight.

Pimblett hit Chandler a hard knee to the head, opening a deep cut and turning the situation entirely in his favor.
Inside the Octagon, Pimblett said, "This is how we win." "We gameplan, and we use our fight IQ."
Does anyone else have any questions? He exuded confidence. His next move was the same.
Pimblett didn't hold back after the fight. He called out top UFC lightweights immediately.
Charles Oliveira, Dustin Poirier, Justin Gaethje, and Arman Tsarukyan were in his targets.

He said, "Anyone in the top four, top five." "That world title is what I want."
He also remembers the doubters. I'll never be a champion, people said. I'm never going to be ranked.
I'll never make the top ten. Now, but, what? I won. His words were powerful. His performance was more powerful.
Pimblett also had a great deal of respect for his possible opponents. He praised Oliveira as "the biggest legend" of them all.
Still, he boldly challenged the Brazilian's reputation for submission.
"The UFC has referred to him as the best submission artist it has ever seen." But I challenge that. I'm here.
Chandler, on the other hand, had difficulty during the fight. UFC Stats shows that he had four takedowns, but he did not capitalize on them.
By the second round, he looked tired out, likely from Pimblett's constant body shots.
Chandler's control time was only 2:44. Compared to that, Pimblett dominated the fight for 4:41.
Chandler is now 1-4 in his last five fights with this defeat. His future is still up in the air.
The possibilities are endless for Pimblett. He now has a 7-0 record in the UFC and is knocking for a title shot.
The fans are excited. The division is becoming hotter. What about Paddy Pimblett? He is just getting started.
