Dana White has shared his thoughts on Paddy Pimblett’s decision victory over Jared Gordon in tonight’s UFC 282 co-main event.

Pimblett (20-3 MMA) was looking to improve his Ultimate Fighting Championship record to 4-0 with a win this evening. In his previous Octagon appearances, ‘The Baddy’ had scored stoppage wins over Luigi Vendramini, Rodrigo Vargas and Jordan Leavitt respectively.

As for Jared Gordon (19-6 MMA), the American was coming off a unanimous decision win over former TUF Brazil winner Leonardo Santos in his most previous effort at UFC 278. ‘Flash’ had gone 4-1 over his past five fights overall prior to tonight’s affair.

Tonight’s UFC 282 co-main event resulted in a grueling back and forth affair. Both men had success during the three-round contest, but it appeared that ‘Flash’ landed the better volume of significant strikes and controlled the majority of the fight. However, the judges (and apparently Dana White) did not see it the same as most fans and analysts, as ‘The Baddy’ ultimately was awarded the unanimous decision victory.
