Alexander Volkanovski Backs Paddy Pimblett Over Justin Gaethje

The featherweight champion picked Pimblett to upset Gaethje in their interim lightweight title fight on 24 January. “There’s been a couple of times where I thought Paddy’s had big tests… and he’s passed them,” he said. Gaethje brings proven power and experience, but Volkanovski believes Pimblett’s confidence and momentum could carry him through the toughest matchup of his career.
