Paddy Pimblett is brimming with confidence as he approaches his interim title match against Justin Gaethje at UFC 324. He boldly asserts that he has '50 different ways' to secure a victory on January 24, making it clear that he feels equipped to dominate their main event, which marks the UFC’s inaugural appearance on the Paramount+ streaming platform.
This assertion stands in stark contrast to the assessment made by Gaethje, who has described his own strategy as ‘perfect’—a blueprint that hinges on Pimblett needing an element of luck to come out on top.
In a recent interview with Applied Nutrition, Pimblett elaborated, saying, "I have an arsenal of finishing techniques, while he only has his overhand right. This fight feels reminiscent of my bout with Chandler; he has just one way to land a hit on me, whereas I possess numerous methods to defeat him. I think we all know how this will unfold—it’s going to be extraordinary. Once I claim this victory, it will merely mark the beginning of my next chapter."
When asked if winning the fight would evoke tears of joy, Pimblett confidently responded, "I can assure you, I won’t be crying. I have many challenges ahead and a list of people to prove wrong, as well as those I aim to appease. After I win, I’ll focus on defending my title and establishing myself as the best in the world, successfully defending this belt multiple times before pursuing another championship."
