Gaethje knocked Pimblett down multiple times in multiple rounds en route to official judges&#8217; scores of 49-46, 49-46 and 48-47.<\/p>\n<p>The result sets up a 155-pound unification bout between Gaethje and undisputed champion <a data-player-guid=\"7c7452e8-f7d0-bfa0-f6dd-61d531ad856e\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mma\/fighter\/_\/id\/4350812\/ilia-topuria\">Ilia Topuria<\/a>, perhaps at the White House in June.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That Scouser does not get knocked out,&#8221; Gaethje said, referencing Pimblett&#8217;s notorious claim that people from Liverpool are impossible to finish. &#8220;This is a crazy sport, an amazing life, and I&#8217;m so thankful to share it with you guys.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gaethje, 37, entered Saturday&#8217;s fight as a +195 betting underdog at DraftKings Sportsbook and is now 9-2 in his UFC career as an underdog.

Gaethje&#8217;s best work came when he put Pimblett&#8217;s back to the fence. He knocked him down with a right uppercut along the cage in the first round and with the right hand again in the second round. He finished the second round on top, landing hard elbows and forearms. Pimblett, bloodied over his right eye, even fist-bumped him after the round in acknowledgement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s a dangerous kid,&#8221; Gaethje said. &#8220;I had to steal his momentum and confidence. My strategy was to put my head in his chest and push him backwards.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pimblett, who kept his prefight promise to stand with Gaethje for all five rounds, credited his opponent for the win. In the buildup to the bout, he had stated that he was a fan of Gaethje.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I wanted to leave with that belt,&#8221; Pimblett said. &#8220;But there&#8217;s no other man I&#8217;d rather lose to than &#8216;The Highlight.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside class=\"inline inline-photo full\">\n<figure><picture><source data-srcset=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2026%2F0125%2Fr1605262_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg&amp;w=570&amp;format=jpg, https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2026%2F0125%2Fr1605262_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg&amp;w=1140&amp;cquality=40&amp;format=jpg 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 376px)\"><source data-srcset=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2026%2F0125%2Fr1605262_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg&amp;w=375, https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2026%2F0125%2Fr1605262_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg&amp;w=750&amp;cquality=40&amp;format=jpg 2x\" media=\"(max-width: 375px)\"><img class=\"lazyload lazyload\" data-image-container=\".inline-photo\" height=\"320\" width=\"570\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/picture><figcaption class=\"photoCaption\">Justin Gaethje, right, scored multiple knockdowns of Paddy Pimblett and outlanded him 219-177 in total strikes.
