Michael Bisping lists Paddy Pimblett among the top-10 UFC trash-talkers

Michael Bisping recently uploaded a video to YouTube, during which he listed down his top-10 trash-talkers in the UFC. For the number 10 spot, 'The Count' chose rising lightweight prospect Paddy Pimblett.

In the video, Michael Bisping stated that Pimblett's charisma and his ability to connect with people made him stand out.

"What sets Paddy apart is his ability to connect with an audience even when he's not fighting. Paddy has that cheeky Scouse charisma, that cheeky Scouse humor working for him and he has the type of belief that draws an audience in. Some love it, I do. Even if you don't like it at all, you have a strong emotional reaction to the guy and that is what promotion is all about."

'The Baddy' is gaining popularity at a rapid pace in the UFC. The 27-year-old has had three fights in the promotion and won all of them. Making the wins even more impressive, Pimblett finished all three of his opponents and won a 'Performance of the Night' bonus for each outing.

If 'The Baddy' continues to put his opponents away like this, he could potentially become a huge star in the sport.
