from Men’s Health: Built For Life · host Men's Health UK
Paddy Pimblett joins Ben Shephard and Andrew Tracey ahead of his interim title bout with Justin Gaethje at UFC 324. We get into what’s going through his head pre-fight, lying awake thinking about finishes, cutting weight without losing your mind, why most gyms are sh*te, why he avoids 'that stupid HYROX stuff', and how many calories he can eat post-fight without blinking. Paddy also opens up about mental health, therapy, and why being tough isn’t what people think. Want more from Men’s Health?
