In addition, it also includes being gracious in victory and defeat and apologizing for any mistakes he may have made. That’s what Anthony Smith believes. Answering a fan on the Michael Bisping podcast, about what Pimblett can do to win his fans over; Smith explained how the Scouser can learn from a certain Irishman on how to win his fans back.

Smith said, “He needs to look at what Conor’s done. Because there was times where Conor went super nice guy and got a lot of fans. And then turned kind of to the bad guy and the lost fans and then he was able to turn back again.“

“So I think paddy needs to be a little more genuine. You know like remember that ring video you’ve seen of him with the dog sh*t in the in the grass. Like maybe show that a little bit more.” He further added.

Overall, Pimblett will need to be diligent in his efforts to win his fans back. This will require hard work, dedication, and a willingness to learn from his mistakes.
