Paddy Pimblett will face his toughest test to date in the UFC when he goes head-to-head with Justin Gaethje in Las Vegas on January 24.
Pimblett is the bookmakers’ favourite to win the interim lightweight title, but he would be well advised not to underestimate his opponent.
For fans who engage in sports betting in Florida and across other regions, odds of 15/8 for Gaethje to emerge victorious are a tempting proposition.
Gaethje scored a convincing decision victory over Rafael Fiziev in his most recent outing, while Pimblett claimed a knockout victory over Michael Chandler in April.
