Bobby Green to Face Paddy Pimblett in Manchester at UFC 304

After all the callouts, Bobby Green
has earned the chance at derailing burgeoning
Ultimate Fighting Championship
star Paddy
Pimblett
.

According to the UFC’s announcement
on Thursday, Green (32-15-1, 1 NC) vs. Pimblett (21-3) will be
taking place on
UFC 304
, likely as part of the main card. The two athletes will
get their wish, after plenty of trash talk from both sides. The
lightweight pairing will join confirmed matchups of Muhammed
Mokaev-Manel Kape
and Arnold
Allen
Giga
Chikadze
high up on the billing. The fights will go down in
Manchester, England, inside of the newly constructed Co-op
Live.

Dating back the last year, Green has won three of four, with a
technical submission of Tony
Ferguson
and a quick drubbing of Grant
Dawson
on his ledger. Jalin
Turner
knocked him out in December, and “King” bounced back in
April to outpoint Jim Miller in
a bloody one-sided affair. The recent positive run for Green has
put him back over the .500 mark in the Octagon, which had
previously dipped below that after a rough stretch.

Making his promotional debut in 2021, Liverpool native Pimblett has
made a mark in the organization by rattling off five straight wins.
Pimblett finished Luigi
Vendramini
, Rodrigo
Vargas
and Jordan
Leavitt
in short order in the span of about 10 months. “The
Baddy” ran into tough opposition against Jared
Gordon
, winning an extremely controversial decision where

all media scorers but one
considered Gordon the victor.
Pimblett returned a year later to outhustle Ferguson and claim the
triumph on the scorecards.

UFC 304 goes down at the Co-op Live in Manchester, England. The
main event will see Leon
Edwards
defend his 170-pound throne against Belal
Muhammad
. In the co-headliner spot, Tom
Aspinall
puts his interim heavyweight strap on the line against
Curtis
Blaydes
. Other likely main card pairings include Arnold
Allen
vs. Giga
Chikadze
at featherweight and a potential flyweight title
eliminator match pitting Muhammad
Mokaev
against Manel Kape.
