Paul Felder was just trying to survive. The seconds were ticking down in his UFC Phoenix co-main event fight with James Vick. Felder believed he was winning on the scorecards and, as the end of the fight loomed, he was just trying to stay up right.
That’s when Vick landed a nasty knee to the body that changed the course of his next few weeks.
“As soon as he hit me, I was like, holy shit, that was a hard knee,” Felder told Luke Thomas on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour.
