Maybe Paddy Pimblett and Renato Moicano will still fight some day, but if it happens, it won't be for a while. Heading into UFC 314, No. 10 Moicano was still ahead of No. 12 Pimblett in the official lightweight rankings.

Pimblett secured a third-round TKO after splitting open the former three-time Bellator champion with a vicious knee, leaving Chandler to slump out of the Octagon before Bruce Buffer even had time to raise the Briton’s arm. With that, Chandler succumbed to his fifth loss in seven UFC bouts.

Michael Chandler left the octagon before Bruce Buffer even had time to announce the result in his fight against Paddy Pimblett at UFC 314 but he finally broke his silence with a brief statement released on social media on Monday.
