Paddy Pimblett finally returned to the cage today (March 20) and he made the most of it.
Opening the main card of Cage Warriors 113 was a lightweight clash between Pimblett and Decky Dalton. After Donovan Desmae and Davide Martinez were pulled from the card, Dalton stepped up as a late replacement opponent. Dalton ended up being no match for Pimblett.
Early in the fight, Dalton slipped off a high kick attempt and Pimblett took full advantage. Pimblett's top control was too much for Dalton and he rained down punches for the quick ground-and-pound finish.
The official Twitter account of Cage Warriors posted the finish, which you can see below.
