Why did Paddy Pimblett throw up in the middle of an interview?

Paddy Pimblett is a name that is experiencing a tremendous rise in the UFC. While the Brit is an outstanding fighter, Pimblett's antics outside the octagon along with his post-fight interviews contributed majorly to his growing popularity.

So far, 'The Baddy' has delivered both fun and inspirational octagon interviews. However, there was a time when things did not go according to plan for the Brit and he began puking during his post-fight interview.

The incident occurred when Pimblett defended his featherweight title against Julian Erosa at Cage Warriors Unplugged. During the post-fight interview, 'The Baddy' began puking a dark-coloured substance. While many believed the champion was puking blood, Pimblett later clarified the incident by stating:

"I'd like to thank everyone for all the kind messages asking about my health, I didn't spew blood it was hot chocolate and Ferraro Roche I'd consumed. Even on my worst day I got the job done, it's that simple. Seeing some very uneducated fans chat s**t is just embarrassing, can't do wrong from doing right in this sport, no matter what I'm a c**t."

Pimblett later stated that he got sick because he had to shed two pounds in two hours after initially missing the 145-pound limit.

Despite the incident being embarrassing for Paddy Pimblett, he handled the situation well. Since his bout against Erosa, the 155-pound fighter experienced a lot of success as he signed with the UFC and is currently undefeated in the promotion.
