Pimblett also runs his own YouTube channel and is quite a celebrity over there as well. But, being a celebrity often comes with its share of controversies. The same was witnessed when one of Pimblett’s subscribers criticized him for being a ‘Clinical Grandiose Narcissist’. That was because Pimblett asked one of his fans to say ‘please’ while asking for a photograph.

While ‘The Baddy’ likes it when someone speaks in a humble tone with a few ‘please’ and ‘thanks’, a YouTube subscriber made a few comments about it.

Pimblett uploaded a vlog on his YouTube channel where he visited ‘The Notorious‘, Conor McGregor’s pub. While having a tour of the place, one of his fans came up to ask for a photograph saying, “Paddy, can I get a photo?“, to which Pimblett replied, “Where your manners, lad?”. Obviously, he wanted the fan to be more courteous in his approach.

Paddy Pimblett called egotistic by his own viewer

One of his subscribers chose to dig upon Pimblett regarding this incident. He took to the comments section of the video and wrote, “If you’re going to act nice enough to take pics with the public then do it because you want to make them happy, not because they submitted to your demand to say please”. Pimblett’s comment on manners clearly didn’t please this subscriber.

The coveted scrap between Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson in 2002 was when I realized the passion for combat sports within my family. My interest in combat sports began watching scripted pro wrestling shows. It was my father who directed me towards combat sports and it wasn’t until the late 2010s that I discovered the world of MMA and the UFC. Like many of you, I too, tuned in for the infamous Nurmagomedov vs. McGregor bout live on October 6, 2018. Being an ardent fan of the UFC (and Dustin ‘The Diamond’ Poirier), I was always looking to have conversations about the same with others. But to my disappointment, I hardly found any followers of the sports to interact with. So I took it upon myself to do my part in popularizing the thrill and the agony behind the purest form of unarmed combat. At EssentiallySports, I try to bring the readers closer to the athletes and focus my coverage on exploring the human side of these martial artists.
