The UFC saw another razor-thin fight in a main event on Saturday when Dan Hooker edged Paul Felder at UFC on ESPN+ 26 in Auckland, New Zealand. In the immediate aftermath, a disappointed Felder told in-cage interviewer Dan Hardy that he might be done fighting. It should be noted that Felder (17-5 MMA, 9-5 UFC) also works as a regular analyst on UFC broadcasts, so if he retires from fighting, he has a fairly solid built-in backup plan for the next phase of his life. But should he call it quits? That’s the question MMA Junkie’s Matt Erickson, Nolan King and Danny Segura attempt to answer in the latest edition of Triple Take. * * * * Matt Erickson: If it’s crossed your mind, and family is the reason, then yes I don’t get salty about athletes deciding to retire. I get salty when they retire and change their minds later – sometimes multiple times. My childhood sports hero, Chicago Cubs Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg, retired in 1994 and unretired a couple years later
