Paddy Pimblett questions Arman Tsarukyan’s UFC title shot case

Paddy Pimblett dismissed Arman Tsarukyan's candidacy for a lightweight title shot, highlighting continued debate over challengers in the division. Speaking at UFC 329 media day, Paddy Pimblett said Arman Tsarukyan has been inactive and should compete more before entering title discussions. He referenced Tsarukyan's recent participation in RAF wrestling events and urged a return to the Octagon. Pimblett, who faces Benoit St. Denis in the co-main event, criticized the caliber of Tsarukyan's last UFC win and remarked that grappling exhibitions are insufficient for contention. Tsarukyan has been campaigning for a title opportunity, while lightweight champion Justin Gaethje has not welcomed that matchup. This clip captures Pimblett's remarks and the current positioning within the lightweight field.
