Paddy Pimblett is now close to being a light-heavyweight having put on close to 45lbs since beating Michael Chandler.
The Liverpudlian recorded a career best win in the lightweight division [155lbs] stopping Michael Chandler at UFC 314 last month.
To get to his normal fighting weight, Pimblett had to make a gruelling cut as always to reach the limit, which he always works extremely hard to fulfil.
But post-fight, the rising contender has shown fans exactly how much he balloons in weight after every outing.
And it has been no different after his brilliant victory, documenting his food intake in a video on his YouTube channel.
He ordered a Chinese takeaway, and had a huge bakery order delivered, clearly delighted to be back eating a full diet.
And at the conclusion of the video, he stepped on the scales albeit fully clothed.
They showed he now weighed 90kg [200lbs] a remarkable increase since his fighting day.
It was a total increase of 45lbs [3.2 stone], and Pimblett boasted of him returning to his more comfortable non-training weight.
In a separate video, Pimblett then revealed what he looked like when assessing the latest UFC 315 pay-per-view.
And fans couldn’t believe how much different he looked after putting on weight.
One wrote: “His ability to lose weight and gain it back instantly is amazing to me. Much love Paddy!

A user added: “The ease with which this man gains weight should be studied by national geographic, it is really incredible.”
Another user commented: “Get in there Paddy lad. Keep cracking on towards the belt which is well and truly on track.
“Keep eating what you want and showing the doubters that they are mistaken with training and performances.”
Pimblett will of course be back in shape for his next fight, but has yet to pencil in his next opponent.
Pimblett is up to eighth in the UFC rankings‘The Baddy’ is hoping to push for a shot at the title, which is currently held by Islam Makhachev.
But Makhachev appears to have indicated he could move up and vacate in a bid to become a two-weight champion at 170lbs.
Alternative options could instead open up for the 30-year-old which could include a mega-fight with Ilia Topuria.
Conor McGregor has also suggested he’d be open to making a comeback to face Pimblett, in what could be one of MMA’s biggest ever events.
