Unfiltered Episode 564: Paddy Pimblett & Nick "NICKMERCS" Kolcheff
Will Matt start a Twitch channel? What kind of dog does Paddy Pimblett own? Jim and Matt get to the bottom of those questions, and much more, on today's episode of UFC Unfiltered!
First, Nick Kolcheff, also known as NICKMERCS, makes his UFC Unfiltered debut. After he shares with Matt some memories of watching him fight with his dad, he details what it was like seeing Alexander Volkanovski against Brian Ortega live in Las Vegas, opens up about his brief amateur boxing career, and explains what it's like to stream on Twitch for tens of thousands of people every day.
Then, Paddy Pimblett joins the show ahead of his fight against Rodrigo Vargas at UFC London in March. After he gets his dog, Lenny, under control, he shares why he believes he'll never leave his hometown of Liverpool, what it's like to be a brand ambassador for Barstool Sports after one fight in the UFC, and why he believes Justin Gaethje will ultimately defeat Charles Oliveira when they face off at UFC 274 in May.

Much love much love ! 🤝
Love ya nickmercs!
Thinnest neck on the podcast
Don’t know shit about the sport, pretends to have been watching in Serra era, when in reality started watching during the bandwagon era of Conor.
You have a cannoli in your mouth right now dont you bud
Always bro❤️
I swear Nick pops up at the most random places. I love it
I SWEAR !!!!!
Thats a good agent for ya
Haha yeah had to do a double take at the thumbnail. Great watch.
My worlds have collided in a way I never thought 😂 good shit
Foreal UFC & Gaming 💪love watching Nick on Apex
Right😂 the only sports i follow. Mma and esports
Nick brought such an incredible energy to this interview. Him and Matt should do more stuff together. It's like they have been friends forever.
Yess
So awesome, seeing nick on here
Shush gaming nerd
@@stansteward5407 that made me chuckle

Nick would smoke lil Paddy let's be honest
@@bfgmarxzy853 oplō
This is super fucking cool, props to the UFC and Matt Serra for showing MFAM love
Nick is the GOAT! Man didnt even want to self promote himself when the guy told him too. Nicks too real! Best guest ever!
He’s also a millionaire so no need to self promote
Life long UFC fan, Matt Serra fan.. tuned in for Nick, massive fan. Nick was the pro today listening to this..
@@brandonchutt312 Cringe
I'm so proud of Nick.. He's come such a long way. So easy to market because he's mature, genuine and funny
Matt needs to start twitch now!!!!😂😂😂 high energy and funny as heck lol
They need him on the UFC channel. It's usually just Jens Pulver, which is still good, but another personality would be pretty cool too
Two of my favorite people in entertainment Matt serra and nick mercs. U can’t beat that and the chemistry between the two was and would be crazy. And paddy later on, one of my all time favorites episodes
to be your favorite fighter you must like shit too!!!
Nick is ashole
As a gamer and an MMA fan I've gotta say this is dope AF. It doesnt happen often but its always awesome to get a random crossover situation with 2 of your unrelated hobbies/interests. I got the same vibes when I saw Tony Hawk on JRE a few months ago ahaha. Also, anyone else kind of get the feeling Nick was acting like a way bigger fan than he really is? I mean I get it, I'm not throwing shade like what are you supposed to say when you actually get to talk to someone like Matt Serra. Its just how he said he used to watch him fight all the time and watched his GSP fights where they beat the shit outta each other. It's just that there was never a fight where they beat the shit out of each other. They fought twice with Matt winning the first and GSP winning the rematch and both fights were as one sided as you could possibly get. I think it wouldve been hilarious to see Nick get flustered if after he said he used watch Matt fight all the time with "GSP and all the boys", Matt asked him what his favourite fight was besides the GSP ones LOL. No hate though, just a funny observation I had from this great interview!
It's cool to see how both of their passions have changed as a whole over the years. Both The UFC and E-SPORTS have grown so much over time, so much so to the point in which they have actually evolved into something somewhat different.
Kick ass episode!! Great to see Nicky and Paddy and seeing the UFCs reach! Serra definitely needs to stream 🔥
Nick looks like the fighter and paddy looks like the gamer
This was great! Nick and Matt combo was amazing
Wow nicknercs + these two = amazing content?! Seriously could’ve listened for hours …. Rarely does anything keep my attention like this did… much love fellas!

If Matt Serra and Nick Mercs did a VR stream one day I think that'd actually be one of the funniest things ever to watch

Good shit Nick, love to see this trio.
When you watch both Nick's streams and UFC What a weird day
Nick is so entertaining. Great guy too.
Such an awesome podcast episode. NICK MERCS
I like how Paddy instantly converted his weight into 177ish lbs but Jim both times the stones/kilo/lbs conversion came up Jim was like "....fuck me😳i have no fuckin clue"
Americans can't figure anything out outside of America. Very arrogant and ignorant culture.
Matt should start streaming for sure
You know what, Nick isn’t a hacker like everyone else in Warzone, so I’m gonna welcome him to this community instead of talking trash.
Nick and the UFC. Great partnership
