Meanwhile, Paddy Pimblett’s accent in the new UFC game also sparked amusement among fans. Rather than featuring his distinctive Scouse accent, the game portrayed him with a broad American accent, deviating significantly from his real voice. This unexpected portrayal garnered attention on social media. Many found it hilariously different from what they anticipated.
Pimblett has a current winning streak of six fights. He debuted professionally in 2012 and gained recognition in the MMA community. Meanwhile, Tony Ferguson has a record of 26 wins and nine losses. Despite a previous 12-fight winning streak, Ferguson’s performance has steeply declined. Since his loss to Justin Gaethje in 2020, Ferguson has faced five additional defeats, indicating a significant downturn in his career.
