Whilst remaining non-committal on a potential return to the Octagon following a 2021 retirement, former lightweight contender, Paul Felder most certainly is not entertaining a potential welterweight clash with the undefeated finishing ace, Shavkat Rakhmonov.
Felder, a former lightweight contender under the banner of the UFC, has since switched his talents to color-commentary and analyst work, after officially calling time on his professional mixed martial arts career.
Ending his combat sports career following back-to-back headlining fights, Philadelphia favorite, Felder most recently took former lightweight champion, Rafael dos Anjos the five round distance back in December 2020, suffering a one-sided split decision loss.
