    UFC lightweight and die-hard Liverpool fan Paddy Pimblett has expressed his frustration at Trent Alexander-Arnold's exit from the club, telling ESPN he believes the defender should not be at their Premier League trophy parade because of the way his departure unfolded. Pimblett is considered a cult hero in Liverpool thanks to his work in the community as well as his status as a top UFC lightweight contender.

    UFC lightweight Paddy Pimblett has said his next opponent will "more than likely" be Justin Gaethje but he is also open to facing Ilia Topuria later this year. Pimblett (23-3) is coming off a career best win over Michael Chandler in April. The 30-year-old produced an excellent TKO victory in Round 3 at UFC 314 which saw him earn a performance of the night bonus and climb to No. 6 in ESPN's lightweight rankings.

"I think it's better for me if Ilia wins because I might not even have to fight again, I'll more than likely be his first defense if he mentions me after it." Paddy Pimblett eyes Gaethje or Topuria next. @espnmma https://t.co/P8QcjZoDPR
