“Mark Zuckerberg’s a Lizard” UFC London Fighter Paddy Pimblett Goes Off on Controversial CEO of Facebook

UFC lightweight sensation Paddy Pimblett took a shot at the social media mogul Mark Zuckerberg after his Instagram account was taken down twice.

‘The Baddy’ is one of the most popular fighters in the sport. The former Cage Warriors champion already had a huge fan following. However, his fame skyrocketed after his debut in the UFC.

Interestingly, Pimblett is a type of person who is very active on social media. The Liverpudlian frequently shares bits from his personal and professional life on his social media accounts. Moreover, he likes to interact with his fans and also indulges in philanthropy acts through it.

However, Pimblett faced problems doing so after Instagram took down his verified account twice for unknown reasons. In a UFC Fight Night press conference, Pimblett said, “The hypocritical nature of Instagram and Facebook is just disgusting, and what they get away with.“ (H/T: Cageside Press)

“It kills me. Mark Zuckerberg’s a lizard. I’ve got to be a lot smarter on my social media, because as you know, I’ve had two accounts took off me now, and the second account had 120,000 followers. I’ve lost out on so much money and sponsorships over the past two weeks, three weeks.”

“I have a pain on my shoulders, thinking, I can’t message them back today, are they still going to be here? If they’re not, it’s Instagram’s fault, because I’d still be speaking to them every day, but I can’t, and then obviously they’re messing with my livelihood. I’m losing out on thousands and thousands of pounds. It’s just one of those things, though. They can do whatever they want. Mark Zuckerberg’s the biggest bully on the planet.”– Pimblett concluded.
