Paul Felder: Lerone Murphy needs ‘spectacular’ finish of Josh Emmett at UFC on ESPN 65 to gain traction

BAD MMA News — Thu, 03 Apr 2025 21:18:13 +0000

UFC commentator and analyst Paul Felder is a supporter of Lerone Murphy ’s status as a surging featherweight title threat, and thinks a big performance in the UFC on ESPN 65 main event would put him over the edge. Murphy (15-0-1 MMA, 7-0-1 UFC) will get the chance to add a signature name to his undefeated record Saturday when he takes on perennial contender Josh Emmett (19-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC) in a five-round headliner at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas (ESPN, ESPN+ ). Felder will serve as a desk analyst for the event alongside Michelle Waterson-Gomez, Michael Chiesa and host Karyn Bryant.

BAD MMA News — Thu, 27 Mar 2025 13:59:25 +0000

It’s not uncommon for fighters to take issue with things UFC commentators say during a live broadcasts. What you don’t see everyday is a fighter physically threaten one. Former multiple-time welterweight title challenger Colby Covington did just that. In an interview with Submission Radio , Covington threatened to ‘slap’ UFC commentator Paul Felder for what Covington sees as unfair criticism. “Paul Felder keeps running his mouth from the commentary booth. He’s going to get slapped as well,” Covington said. “Chaos” then revealed a story about Felder being intoxicated during a visit with soldiers. “He was talking shit about me. He was saying some sh*t that

Paul Felder ponders Brandon Moreno’s ability to end winless skid in Mexico

BAD MMA News — Tue, 25 Mar 2025 21:48:12 +0000

Brandon Moreno ’s career in the UFC could not be described as anything less than an outrageous success. The two-time former flyweight champion has reached the highest of highs, been a part of history and been one of the key figures behind MMA’s boom in Mexico. When it comes to competing on his home soil, however, that’s a part of Moreno’s UFC career he probably wants to forget about. He’s winless in three octagon appearances in Mexico, going 0-2-1, with the two defeats being in main events against Sergio Pettis and Brandon Royval. On Saturday, however, Moreno (22-8-2 MMA, 10-4-2 UFC) gets the chance to turn the narrative in his favor.

Covington (17-5 MMA, 12-5 UFC) embraces his heel personality, which has helped increase his popularity significantly from his days as a rising welterweight contender.

Paul Felder endorses return of WSOF version of Justin Gaethje at UFC 313

BAD MMA News — Thu, 06 Mar 2025 18:31:43 +0000

Justin Gaethje plans to implement a regression in his fighting style at UFC 313 , and Paul Felder loves the idea. After suffering a Knockout of the Year loss to Max Holloway at UFC 300 last April, Gaethje (25-5 MMA, 8-5 UFC) returns to competition on Saturday in a co-main event rematch with Rafael Fiziev (12-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas ( ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPNews/Disney+, ESPN+). The biggest question mark around Gaethje coming into the event is how the loss to Holloway could impact him not just physically and in terms of durability, but mentally, as well. All signs have been positive so far, with Gaethje claiming the knockout won’t lead to any hesitation in the cage. In fact, Gaethje said he wants to revert back to how he fought in the now-defunct WSOF promotion when he was undefeated and turning heads with his fearless approach. As Gaethje moved to UFC, suffered his first career losses and was forced to rebuild, he somewhat refined his style.
