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.

Pimblett (22-3), whose hype has typically outshined his actual level of talent up to this point, enters a five-round, co-main event slot at Saturday's UFC 314 pay-per-view card in Miami against former title challenger Michael Chandler (23-9) with a shot at silencing his critics and catapulting himself into legitimate title contention at 155 pounds.
