Paddy Pimblett shares final prediction for Michael Chandler fight at UFC 314

Paddy Pimblett will look to improve his UFC rankings with a potential win over Michael Chandler at UFC 314 this weekend.

Ahead of the matchup, Pimblett spoke to ESPN MMA and issued a stern warning to Chandler, saying:

''I think I’m gonna finish Mike in two [rounds]. As I say, I think I can end this fight anywhere. He loves lunging in with his punches, so I can see me catching him with a shot on the way in, putting him down. Or I can actually see me submitting him. I don’t see a way I lose, to be honest.”
