Joe Rogan believes that Paddy Pimblett is winding his UFC rivals in a false sense of security.
When 'The Baddy' debuted in the promotion, many expected him to have trouble reaching the highest level. After beating Michael Chandler, however, the Liverpudlian is about to have a chance at Islam Makhachev.
Dustin Poirier thinks Pimblett is able to become UFC champion, and the company's commentator is just impressed by what he has seen from the Englishman.
Rogan thinks the grappler is considerably better than getting credit.

Joe Rogan says Paddy Pimblett's Haircut is his opponents for the trick
Joe Rogan judges Paddy Pimblett very high, in the conviction that the scouser is an extremely dangerous operator.
The podcaster is convinced that one of the greatest points of the hunter is the impact that his iconic look has on his opponents.
In an episode of the Joe Rogan experience, the American explained: “Paddy is a large lightweight. I know he is really getting fat between fighting, but he is big. He is much bigger than people think.
“I always say that he misleads people by dancing and having her crazy. That is a murderer. He misleads you; he is one of those insects that pretends to be a stick, and then he attacks you.
Joe Rogan gives his position on the CV of Paddy Pimblett
Slowly but surely, Pimblett is making a CV-Bordev will together with MMA legends.
And while some people suffer the lightweight star for taking in veterans of sport, Rogan believes, in context, they are still excellent victories.
He added: “I also love Chandler and I love paddy. He is very impressive.
“There is a good argument that the last three boys he fought – Bobby (King) Green, Chandler and Tony Ferguson – he fights against boys losing records, which is true. But it is still very impressive.
“What he did with Chandler compared to what Charles Oliveira did. Oliveira was in real problems in the third round of their last fight and in real problems of the first round of their first fight. Paddy was never in trouble.”
