It has been a wild stretch for Paul Felder, going back to UFC 223 when he lost his fight with Al Iaquinta when Ragin’ Al stepped in to fight Khabib in the main event. Then his Boise bout with James Vick was scrapped when Vick was shipped to Lincoln to meet Justin Gaethje. It’s a run that would cause many to lose hope, but suddenly Felder finds himself on the biggest fight card of the year (and moving up to welterweight), replacing an injured Yancy Medeiros against Mike Perry at UFC 226.
