"Congrats to Paddy Pimblett" - UFC Fighter posts cheeky tweet after Molly McCann announces engagement
UFC superstars Paddy Pimblett and Molly McCann are an inseparable duo. The two Scousers have been close friends and teammates for years since both athletes train out of Next Generation MMA in Liverpool.
On New Year's Eve, 'Meatball' announced her engagement to her partner Ellis Clark in an Instagram post. While many fans and fighters flooded the upload with congratulatory messages, one particular MMA fighter used the occasion to sneak in a sly mention of 'The Baddy'.
Reacting to the news of the women's flyweight's engagement, UFC fighter Terrance McKinney posted a rather cheeky tweet, congratulating Pimblett instead of McCann:
"Congrats to Paddy."
'T.Wrecks' might be hoping to get on Pimblett's radar with his Twitter shenanigans. On several occasions in the past, McKinney has called out the rising UFC superstar for a fight.

Terrance McKinney explains why he would "dominate" Paddy Pimblett in a fight
In a recent interview with MMA reporter James Lynch, UFC lightweight Terrance McKinney predicted that he would completely dominate rising superstar Paddy Pimblett in a fight.
'T.Wrecks' explained that the Liverpool native would neither be able to take him down nor be able to match him on the feet. The 28-year-old promised fans that he would be on the hunt for a knockout if the duo were to fight:
"Just Domination... He won't be able to take me down, one. Two, he won't be able to stand with me. And no matter what, I think I'll have the strength in scramblings. He might be a good grappler but he won't be able to scramble with me because of the years of wrestling. No matter what, we'll get him out of there in the first round, but for the fans, I would not wrestle, I'll look to put him out unconscious."
