Did Paddy Pimblett make the right call by asking for Benoit Saint-Denis?
Chael breaks down why this matchup says more about the lightweight division than almost any other fight on the schedule.
At 155 pounds, the margin between contenders is razor thin, and Benoit Saint-Denis is far more dangerous than his recent record might suggest.
Chael also explains why fighters usually know far more about their matchups than fans realize, what confidence actually means inside the cage, and why Paddy's experience going five rounds may be the biggest advantage he carries into this fight.
Is this a case of "be careful what you ask for," or did Paddy identify the perfect opponent?
