UFC Fight Night is back on Saturday, July 23 and one of the most intriguing matchups on the card will be between Paddy Pimblett and Jordan Leavitt. The two have bad blood between them, so there will be plenty of animosity in the octagon when they step inside. Leavitt doesn't seem too worried about disposing of his English counterpart and has already revealed his absurd plans for after he takes down Pimblett. Leavitt told reporters on Wednesday that he plans to “finish the fight, twerk, and go home.”

Leavitt didn't hold back one bit with his wild plans to twerk over Pimblett's body after (hopefully) knocking him out in the Octagon on Saturday.
His strategy is simple. Do the fighting. Do the twerking. Carry on and go home. All that's left is putting that plan into action, which will be easier said than done.
Leavitt owns a 10-1-0 record in the UFC, having won his previous two fights against the likes of Trey Ogden and Matt Sayles. Pimblett, who is 18-3-0 in his MMA career, will be one of the toughest tasks Leavitt has faced, but the 27-year-old surely isn't lacking confidence ahead of the bout.
Of course, Pimblett had his own words for Leavitt, though far less bizarre. The Liverpool fighter called Leavitt an “idiot” and claimed he would not be touching gloves with his opponent at UFC London.
Regardless of who emerges victorious, this fight in London is sure to have loads of fireworks. And if Jordan Leavitt does win, expect to see some exotic dancing from the 27-year-old as he showboats across the Octagon.
