Morning Report | Paddy Pimblett reacts to Arman Tsarukyan’s win at UFC 331: ‘I’d still punch his head in’

Even Paddy Pimblett was impressed by Arman Tsarukyan's win over the weekend, but not too impressed.
On Saturday, Tsarukyan delivered one of the best performances of his career, knocking out Mauricio Ruffy in the co-main event of UFC 331 in Los Angeles. The win was so impressive that even long-time Tsarukyan hater, Paddy Pimblett, had to give him props for the performance.
"That was lovely. That was lovely, Arman," Pimblett said on his YouTube channel . "That was a nasty elbow, lad. Gotta give him his due. As much as I don't like him, that was a naughty elbow."
Pimblett and Tsarukyan have been embroiled in a low-key feud for years, primarily centered around the lightweight title picture. So of course, Pimblett wasn't complimentary for long.
