A fight between rising UFC star Paddy ”The Baddy” Pimblett and the Swedish-Georgian powerhouse Guram Kutateladze has a top spot on Frontkick’s wishlist.

Kutateladze actually called Pimblett out, just when the Brit signed the UFC contract last year, but got nothing but a rude response.

“I called him out pretty respectfully, but the way he responded to me … It’s nothing that you’re going to forget … you don’t forgive these kinds of things, and you’re going to have to pay for it, in one way or another. If I won’t be the one to punish him, life will punish him … call it whatever”, Kutateladze recently told Frontkick.

However, as much as we want to see them fight it out in the octagon, Kutateladze will first take on Damir Ismagulov at an upcoming UFC event June 18. This will be his first UFC fight since the debut win over Mateusz Gamrot, almost two years ago.
