Popular UFC fighters Paddy Pimblett and Molly McCann are primed to share the screen in a reality show produced by the British Broadcasting Corporation.
The show, which is entitled “Paddy & Molly: Show No Mersey,” will air on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer in the U.K., with a launch date to be revealed soon. The title is a nod to Merseyside, which is the hometown for both Pimblett and McCann and will be featured prominently on the show.
According to a release, “this frank, funny and up-close series will follow Paddy and Molly’s journey inside and outside of the cage as they take on the biggest fights of their lives — which will determine their legacy in the MMA world — all whilst juggling their relationships with friends and family.”
“We can’t wait for you all to see what a day in the life for us both entails,” said Pimblett and McCann in a joint statement. “It’s not all sunshine and rainbows and a lot goes into what we do. You won’t believe it until you see it so get watching!”
A former Cage Warriors champion, Pimblett has emerged as a marketable star in the UFC thanks in large part to his brash persona. Paddy “The Baddy” has also enjoyed success in the Octagon, posting a 5-0 record within the Las Vegas-based promotion. Pimblett doesn’t currently have a fight booked.
Also a Cage Warriors veteran, McCann has been in the UFC since 2018. “Meatball” enjoyed a rise to prominence during a three-bout winning streak from September 2021 to July 2022 where she finished two opponents via spinning back elbow. McCann is scheduled to return to action against Diana Belbita at UFC Fight Night 235 on Feb. 3.
