Pimblett recently discussed the lightweight title picture on the
\n\u201cGreen Light\u201d podcast, explaining that his approach to trash talk
\ndepends on his opponent. While he\u2019ll remain respectful towards UFC
\nveterans, the Liverpool native recently vowed to \u201cterrorize\u201d
\nTopuria or Tsarukyan should he get matched up against either
\none.<\/p>\n

Paddy Pimblett explains why Ilia Topuria and Arman Tsarukyan
\nget a different kind of trash talk<\/h2>\n

Pimblett has nothing but respect for the likes of Charles
\nOliveira<\/a> and Max
\nHolloway<\/a>. \u201cThe Baddy\u201d claims his venomous trash talk is only
\ndirected at those he genuinely dislikes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I fight Ilia or Arman, I\u2019m gonna absolutely rinse their lives.
\nI\u2019m gonna absolutely terrorize them,\u201d Pimblett said. \u201cBut if I
\nfight Max Holloway or Charles Oliveira, I wouldn\u2019t, because I
\nrespect them and I like them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pimblett has previously praised Topuria’s skills, but the two have
\ndeveloped a bitter rivalry outside the Octagon. Tsarukyan,
\nmeanwhile, has drawn considerably less respect from the former
\n
\nCage Warriors<\/a> champ.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong, I respect Ilia, but we\u2019ve had beef for years,\u201d
\nPimblett added. \u201cI think he\u2019s a little helmet. I\u2019d love to fight
\nhim and give him shit. Arman Tsarukyan, I\u2019ve got no respect for at
\nall. He\u2019s just a rich kid whose daddy\u2019s a millionaire.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pimblett returned to the win column in July with a quick submission
\nvictory over Benoit St.
\nDenis<\/a> at
\nUFC 329<\/a>. Meanwhile, Tsarukyan is scheduled to face Mauricio
\nRuffy<\/a> in the UFC
\n331<\/a> co-main event on Sept. 19. Topuria has yet to book his next
\nouting following his loss to Justin
\nGaethje<\/a> at
\nUFC Freedom 250<\/a>, which marked the first defeat of his
\ncareer.<\/p>\n
