He was asked a common question for any athlete: what would you be if you weren’t a UFC fighter? Paddy Pimblett didn’t think twice. 🥊

“I would definitely be diabetic”, the Brit blurted out, with no filter and no shame. The room filled with laughter, but the joke cuts both ways: Pimblett has gone viral several times for putting on several kilos between fights, and for showing himself on social media devouring junk food with a grin from ear to ear.

His brutal honesty about his own relationship with food is exactly what makes him so beloved by his fans. The fighter does not pretend to be the perfect athlete 24 hours a day, and this time he made it crystal clear with a single sentence. 😅
