HOW PADDY PIMBLETT’S "DISRESPECTFUL" POIRIER COMMENTS IGNITED THE UFC 324 PRESS CONFERENCE
Justin Gaethje and Paddy Pimblett face off for the interim title at UFC 324. Discover the start times, Poirier drama, and fight odds.
Justin Gaethje didn’t hold back. He slammed Paddy Pimblett for trash-talking some of the UFC’s biggest names, and you could see the tension between them ramp up before their fight.
They’re set to face off Saturday night at UFC 324 in Las Vegas. The interim lightweight belt’s on the line, and, honestly, it’s a fight that feels like it’s been brewing for a while. The funny thing is, when Gaethje and Pimblett met at the launch presser last month, things were surprisingly chill. They shook hands, smiled for the cameras. But all that politeness disappeared at the final press conference on Thursday night.
That’s where it got interesting. Gaethje lost his cool when Pimblett started taking shots at UFC legend Dustin Poirier, claiming Poirier looked “dog s***” in his last fight against Max Holloway. This was during a conversation about whether Gaethje himself is on a “goodbye tour”—something people keep speculating about. Gaethje brushes it off, but his coach, Trevor Wittman, says this is Gaethje’s last big run at the undisputed title. Everything’s on the line Saturday.
So when they went face-to-face on Thursday, Gaethje didn’t sugarcoat his feelings. “I love everything he’s been saying,” Gaethje said, his voice tinged with sarcasm. “He sounds overconfident—he’s out here disrespecting legends like Dustin Poirier. I’m going to dog walk this English fuck on Saturday. Watch.”
Pimblett, for his part, didn’t back down. He told TNT Sports that Poirier put too much pressure on himself by announcing his retirement before fighting Holloway. “He’s come out and said, ‘Yeah, I’m in this retirement fight,’ and he looked like a piece of dog s***. Got his head punched in for five rounds and looked like shit. If you’re going to retire, just do it. Don’t tell everyone. He put too much expectation on his shoulders and got miffed in his own backyard, making himself look stupid.”
On Thursday, Pimblett doubled down. “Dustin’s never had a nice word to say about me, so I was honest—he looked like s***. Stop f***ing crying.” Gaethje wasn’t about to let that slide. He fired back, “You would also look like s*** against Holloway.”
A lot of people have written Pimblett off since this fight got announced. He keeps getting doubted, even though he’s become a real name in the sport. He earned his shot at the interim title by knocking out Michael Chandler last April.
Gaethje, meanwhile, has seen it all. He’s been in the UFC longer, fought in some absolute wars, and has a rep for finishing fights in brutal fashion. He’s already held the interim lightweight belt, though he’s come up short twice when it comes to the undisputed title. He heads into this one off a clear win over Rafael Fiziev in March.
So, when’s the fight? Pimblett vs. Gaethje goes down Saturday, January 24, at the T-Mobile Arena in Vegas. Early prelims start around 10pm GMT (that’s 5pm ET, 2pm PT, 4pm CT), with the regular prelims at midnight GMT (7pm ET, 4pm PT, 6pm CT). The main card kicks off at 2am GMT Sunday (9pm ET, 6pm PT, 8pm CT).
If you’re just tuning in for the main event, expect Pimblett to walk first at about 4am GMT Sunday (11pm ET, 8pm PT, 10pm CT), with Gaethje right after. Timings can change, especially if the undercard goes long, but that’s how things look right now.
HAMMER DROPPED: DILLON BROOKS SUSPENDED BY NBA AFTER HITTING 16TH TECHNICAL FOUL LIMIT
Dillon Brooks hits the 16-technical foul limit! Discover the cost of his suspension and how it affects the Phoenix Suns' season.
Dillon Brooks just picked up a one-game suspension from the NBA; his 16th technical foul of the season finally caught up with him. If you’ve followed Brooks at all, this probably doesn’t surprise you. The guy’s known for playing right up to the edge, stirring things up on the court, and, honestly, not backing down from anyone. This latest tech happened in the third quarter against the Oklahoma City Thunder, after a run-in with referee James Williams. That was all the NBA needed to drop the hammer.
The league released a pretty standard statement: “Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks has been suspended one game without pay for receiving his 16th technical foul of the 2025-26 season,” signed off by James Jones, who runs basketball ops for the Suns. Because of the suspension, Brooks will lose a chunk of change, $121,403, according to ESPN’s Bobby Marks.
After the game, Brooks sounded tired of the whole thing. “I had a ref tell me that I play the victim, so I ain’t talking no more about that,” he told reporters. “Yeah. He said I’m playing victim all the time. And when I don’t play victim, I’m the bad guy.” When pressed, Brooks didn’t hold back. “If you’re going to be consistently bad, then be consistently bad throughout the whole game. Don’t try to fix it during the game. Don’t try to even out foul calls or whatever it may be. If you’re going to be bad, be bad the whole game.”
The NBA isn’t budging on this one. Brooks will sit out the Suns’ first game after the All-Star break. Hitting 16 technicals in a season triggers an automatic one-game suspension. And it doesn’t stop there; every two more technicals means another game on the bench, no pay.
Brooks is actually having a career year in Phoenix, averaging 21.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.8 assists, shooting 44.1% from the field, 34.3% from three, and 85.6% from the line. But now, with this suspension hanging over him, he’ll have to rein it in if he wants to stay on the court.
This season’s been wild with NBA suspensions, not just Brooks. The massive brawl between the Pistons and Hornets stands out. Four players got tossed and then suspended: Isaiah Stewart (aka Beef Stew) and Jalen Duren for Detroit, and Miles Bridges and Moussa Diabate for Charlotte. Stewart got seven games for charging off the bench and into the fight. Duren, who just made his first All-Star team, got two games but will still play in the All-Star Game. Bridges and Diabate each got four games for “fighting and escalating the altercation”, per the league.
And that’s not all. Jaxson Hayes of the Lakers got suspended for a game after shoving a mascot. Yes, really. He apologised but still had to sit. Rudy Gobert picked up a one-game ban for racking up too many flagrant fouls. Dennis Schroder, back when he was with Sacramento, drew a three-game suspension for a post-game incident with Luka Donci, who he reportedly tried to take a swing at in the arena tunnel. Jose Alvarado and Mark Williams both got two games for fighting earlier in the year.
Then there’s Paul George, who got hit with a whopping 25-game suspension for violating the NBA/NBPA Anti-Drug Program. That’s the longest one in recent memory.
As for who’s next in the technical foul race, Luka Doncic has 13, Stewart has 12, and Draymond Green sits at 11. If any of them hit 16, expect a similar one-game vacation from the league.
MVG MASTERCLASS: MICHAEL VAN GERWEN KNOCKS OUT LUKE LITTLER TO REACH ANTWERP FINAL TODAY
Michael van Gerwen is back! Read how he defeated Luke Littler in Antwerp to secure his second straight Premier League final.
Michael van Gerwen is looking like his old self again. He just knocked Luke Littler out of night two at Premier League Darts and did it in style.
Littler, who’s only 19, picked up his first win of the Premier League season on Thursday; he edged out his long-time rival Luke Humphries in a wild match in Antwerp. But that run didn’t last. In the semi-finals, he ran straight into a fired-up Van Gerwen.
Last year was rough for Van Gerwen, no way around it. But now? He’s come roaring back. He won the opening night in Newcastle and just added Littler’s name to his growing list of big wins.
Fans loved it. “That was a quality performance from Van Gerwen! “Back-to-back finals for MVG,” someone posted online. Another said, “If this version of Van Gerwen is here to stay, darts are going to be in a better place by the end of 2026!” The excitement kept rolling—"Darts is always better when MVG plays like this,” one fan wrote. And then: “He is so back. This is his year!” Someone else just put it simply: “MVG is so back, and you love to see it!”
Even on Sky Sports, Dan Dawson couldn’t help himself: “Michael van Gerwen is in back-to-back finals to start this year’s Premier League. The Green Machine sees off The Nuke.”
Littler’s stuck at just two points from the first two weeks, while Van Gerwen could walk away with two weekly wins already.
Now Van Gerwen waits to see if he’ll face Johnny Clayton or Gerwyn Price in the final in Belgium. Both Welshmen got there by beating Stephen Bunting and Gian van Veen.
Littler, on the other hand, really needs a deep run next Thursday in Glasgow to get his campaign back on track. Two points in two weeks just isn’t enough.
