Paddy Pimblett recently took part in a sparring session with influencer Dean Alex…
And the matchup played out much like many fans expected.
The session came after Alex responded to comments claiming he would never agree to face Pimblett.
Shortly afterward, “The Baddy” appeared in the video and the two shared a lighthearted sparring match.
Although Alex managed to surprise some viewers by landing a few clean punches during the exchange, Pimblett eventually took control of the session.
After the sparring ended, Pimblett also landed a playful slap to the back of Alex’s head, while the influencer was later shown throwing up over a balcony following the training.
