The UFC’s debut show at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York has another fight booked. Earlier this week, it was announced that Paul Felder will be taking on Gilbert Burns at UFC 208 on Saturday, February 11th. The night’s main card airs live on pay-per-view, with prelims on FS1.
Felder (12-3) had entered 2016 having lost back-to-back fights to Edson Barboza and Ross Pearson. “The Irish Dragon” submitted Daron Cruickshank in January, then beat Josh Burkman by unanimous decision in May, setting up a September showdown with Francisco Trinaldo. Felder would ultimately suffer a doctor’s stoppage in the 3rd round of the Trinaldo fight, with his face battered and bloodied.
