Paddy Pimblett vs. Jordan Leavitt set for next UFC London card

McCann had been previously announced for the card and many had assumed Pimblett would be included as well, and now he has a fight.

Pimblett (18-3 MMA, 2-0 UFC) will square off with another fan favorite when he takes on Jordan Leavitt (10-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) in July.
