"He gets sh** done" - Paddy Pimblett reveals his favorite superhero
Paddy Pimblett has named the fictional character 'Batman' as his favorite superhero.
Accompanied by Molly McCann, he recently had a chat with Gary Neville for The Overlap. When asked about his favorite superhero, 'The Baddy' said that he was fond of 'Batman' as the DC Comics anti-hero would deliver justice despite not having any superpowers:
"Even though he's not a superhero, I have to go Batman, just because he's a normal fella. I like Batman, me lad... He's got no superpowers but he gets sh** done. That's how we roll."

Both Pimblett and McCann will next be seen in action at the UFC London event on July 23.
Pimblett will take on Jordan Leavitt in a lightweight scrap, while 'Meatball' will lock horns with Hannah Goldy in a flyweight bout.
The card will be headlined by a heavyweight clash between Curtis Blaydes and Tom Aspinall.
Paddy Pimblett predicts a first-round finish against Jordan Leavitt
Paddy Pimblett believes his upcoming bout with Jordan Leavitt will likely end in the first round. In a vlog uploaded to his YouTube channel, 'The Baddy' said he will probably finish 'The Monkey King' within the first five minutes of the fight:
"I'm gonna knock him out in the first five minutes, more than likely. That's it. I'm gonna come out and put it on him in a big way. He will wilt under the pressure in the first or the early second, and I'm gonna finish him."

Despite having only two fights in the UFC, Pimblett has quickly become a prominent figure among MMA fans. The 27-year-old made his UFC debut in September 2021 and defeated Luigi Vendramini via first-round knockout.
In his second outing in March this year, 'The Baddy' finished Rodrigo Vargas with a rear-naked choke in the opening round.
Pimblett won a Performance of the Night bonus for both fights.
Now that he is getting a jump up in competition with Leavitt, fans will have to wait and see if 'The Baddy' can continue his impressive run on July 23.
