Paddy Pimblett eyes rematch with Justin Gaethje

Paddy Pimblett says his UFC 324 defeat to Justin Gaethje taught him more than seven prior wins, clarifying his response to a first UFC loss. Gaethje won a unanimous decision in their January interim lightweight title bout, and Pimblett now seeks a rematch while alleging an eye poke. Speaking to iFL TV, the Liverpudlian said he will return stronger, with a July comeback targeted during International Fight Week and long-term title ambitions. Debate over his interim shot persisted, with Arman Tsarukyan cited by many as the top contender, while Gaethje is slated to pursue title unification against champion Ilia Topuria on June 14.
