Paul Felder is not just a #7 ranked fighter in the UFC Lightweight Division, but he is also a color commentator for the UFC.
Fans of Felder’s commentary work are going to be thrilled to know that Felder will be in the commentary booth for all four UFC cards on Fight Island.
“I’m calling every fight,” Felder told MMA Junkie. “I’m working the desk for every fight and calling every fight. I’m out there all three weeks. So, I’ve got a lot of work to do as well. There’s quite a lot of research when you have to call four fight cards and also talk pre and post-fight shows as well.”
Others who are working with Felder on the commentary desk, according to MMA Junkie, are Michael Bisping, Jon Anik, John Gooden, and Dan Hardy.
Felder also knows that he has a lot of research to do for the forty-plus fights taking place on the Fight Island cards.
“That last one I will have plenty of time, but the first three I’ve got to be ready and ahead of it and start prepping the first couple now,” Felder said. “Then once the first one is done, I’ll freshen up on the second show and starting research on the third show. I’d like to get a little idea of everybody, especially the prelim guys that might slip under the radar on occasion. I want to make sure I’m on point and giving those guys their credit and really showcasing them properly.”
The Fight Island cards start on July 11 with UFC 251 and end on July 25 with UFC Fight Night: Whittaker vs. Till.
