The Ringer MMA Show
The Paddy Pimblett Aftermath, Douglas Crosby Horror Stories, and Is Paddy vs. McGregor the Fight to Make?
About the episode
In the penultimate episode of 2022 for 3PAC, Ariel Helwani, Petesy Carroll, and Chuck Mindenhall gather once more to discuss the fallout of UFC 282, the weekend ahead, and much more—covering topics like:
- Ariel’s heated interaction with Douglas Crosby outside a computer store a few years ago, as well as Chuck’s 2015 piece about Crosby and the very bizarre day he spent with him (5:00)
- The perception of Paddy Pimblett in Europe following last week’s missteps and whether he’s done irreparable harm to his young UFC career (43:07)
- Why next year’s UFC London card is likely to fall short of the massive expectations we placed on it after Leon Edwards won the welterweight belt (54:14)
- KSW’s massive card this weekend, as well as UFC’s big middleweight bout between Jared Cannonier and Sean Strickland (1:04:57)
Plus, the guys take calls from the fans on judging, Dricus Du Plessis, the biggest fights to make in 2023, and whether Conor McGregor and Paddy Pimblett are actually the perfect matchup for each other at this point in their careers (1:13:48).
