Paddy Pimblett Denies Puking Blood Mid-Interview With Bizarre Explanation

Liverpool's Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett left it all in the cage, literally, after defending his Cage Warriors title on Saturday.

The 21-year-old earned an extremely contentious decision victory over Julian Erosa at Cage Warriors: Unplugged, with the judges scoring the contest 49-46, 48-47 and 48-47 in favour of the champion despite Erosa seemingly having the upper hand throughout.

Speaking post-fight, Pimblett was complaining about making weight when he vomited a dark substance live on tv during his post-fight interview. The crowd's reaction said it all:

Many suspected Pimblett had puked up blood and were concerned for his wellbeing after the contest, but the charismatic Scouser has another, far more bizarre explanation for what exactly it was that escaped his mouth in the centre of the octagon.

Taking to Instagram, Pimblett claimed it was in fact hot chocolate and Ferrero Rocher, and not blood, which he vomited post-fight, thanking fans for their concern.
