Sean O'Malley claims he's completely blown away by UFC star Paddy Pimblett's recent weight gain
UFC bantamweight Sean O'Malley appears to be shocked by Paddy Pimblett's recent body transformation.
Pimblett is notorious for gaining large amounts of weight after his fights. Many have warned the rising UFC star against it but the 28-year-old appears to be set in his ways.
In the latest episode of the BrO'Malley Show, 'Suga' said that he recently saw a video of 'The Baddy' looking huge and it blew his mind. O'Malley was unable to figure out whether the video was new or an old one circulating on the internet. Sean O'Malley said:
"I've seen a video today of Paddy smoking a joint on a boat. Is that recent?... Bro, this blew my mind, how fat he looked. I don't know if it was like a recent one or it was something that was posted a long time ago."
"But dude, I was like, 'Holy sh*t!' He's living. He's enjoying life... I wish we could find this video of Paddy. If someone's seen it, they'll know what I'm talking about. He looked thick, dude. Like, bigger than I've ever seen him... I bet he hits 220 [pounds]."

What's next for Paddy Pimblett?
Many were expecting to see Paddy Pimblett on the UFC 286 card, which is set to take place in London. But it appears that MMA fans will have to wait a bit longer to see 'The Baddy' back in action.
In his last fight, Pimblett went up against Jared Gordon at UFC 282. The fight was a razor-close affair that ended with a unanimous decision victory for 'The Baddy'.
In the first round of that fight, Paddy Pimblett suffered an ankle injury and is now expected to undergo surgery soon. Thus, the Liverpuddlian will not be a part of the UFC 286 event in London.
In a recent video, a doctor told Pimblett about the injury:
"It looks like you have got a small amount of cartilage lost in this bit, and that’s exactly where you’re sore. The other thing you’ve got is all this white stuff around here."
"That’s all fluid so that’s what the swelling is. Now when we look at your ligaments that joins from your fibula, which is this bone, you've probably got what we call a Grade 2 injury to that."
