Could MJF be making good on his threat to appear at a UFC event to challenge Paddy Pimblett? If recent reports are to be believed, the answer is yes.
ESPN’s Marc Raimondi posted to Twitter on Friday that according to sources close to the matter, the AEW World Champion will be at Saturday’s UFC event in Las Vegas, NV.
MJF teased that an appearance like this could be coming. MJF and Pimblett got into a war of words over social media, with Pimblett taking issue over MJF’s comments that pro wrestling was more dangerous than MMA. MJF ended up labeling Pimblett a “dollar store Connor McGregor” in the verbal altercation.
