Renato Moicano responds to Paddy Pimblett's UFC 304 callout: 'Be prepared because I'm going to f*ck you up'

Ask and you shall receive. Paddy Pimblett called out Renato Moicano and now he’s got a response.

The English star requested the winner of “Money” Moicano and Benoit Saint-Denis, which is set to headline the UFC’s return to Paris on Sept. 28, following his quick submission win over King Green this past Saturday at UFC 304. Although he called for the winner, he said he’d preferably like to face Moicano.

“Let me tell you something, Paddy Pimblett: If you want the smoke, my brother, be prepared, because I’m going to f*ck you up – 100 percent,” Moicano said on the ‘Show Me the Money’ podcast. “But I have to take my hat off: huge performance. I don’t want to be a hater and say, ‘Oh, he don’t deserve.’ No, you know what? Motherf*cker deserves to be in the top 15. That’s the truth.”

Apart from the callout, Pimblett (22-3 MMA, 6-0 UFC) also suggested that him and Moicano (19-5-1 MMA, 11-5 UFC) be opposing coaches for the next season of “The Ultimate Fighter.” Moicano is all in on the idea, but thinks some extra editing will have to be done if it comes to fruition.

“Respect to him because he not only called me out, but he said we need to do ‘The Ultimate Fighter,’ and I agree with that,” Moicano said. “It’s going to be the first ‘Ultimate Fighter’ with subtitles, my brother, because I cannot understand this motherf*cker. Maybe his English is worse than mine.”

Moicano also revealed he’s entering the fight against Saint-Denis on the final bout of his current UFC contract. He’d like to stay with the UFC and get a bigger bag.

“Let me talk serious about that, Paddy Pimblett: I’m planning on beating Benoit Saint-Denis in France, and then we talk business,” Moicano said. “Let me tell you something, UFC. Let me tell you something: Show me the money and let’s do it.”
