UFC Lightweight Paul Felder has shared that he plans to continue fighting after taking a loss in his short-notice main event against Rafael Dos Anjos.

In his post fight interview Felder shared that he is far from done in his fighting career and expect to return once again.

“This was for my dad, this was for my family, this was for you guys. I lost my passion for this sport pretty bad and to all my Phili friends and family and teammates back home I love you guys, I miss you guys and I can tell you is I’m not done,” Felder said.

“I might lose my ranking a little bit but what I’ve learned in this sport is none of that matters what matters is going out there and showing who you are inside, what determination you have, and for the guys who missed weight and couldn’t make it here tonight. Get your stuff together, hire a nutritionist, get on the scale, make weight, and go perform. I was dying on Thursday night to get on that scale at 156 pounds and I did it. And I showed up tonight for 25 minutes with no training, just training for a triathlon. So get your stuff together get your shit together and let’s go.

On the event there were multiple fighters who missed weight with some being pulled from the card as a result.

The main event saw Felder and Dos Anjos go the full 25 minutes in an epic back and forth Fight of the Night war that ultimately saw RDA take the victory on two of three judges scorecards.

Following his previous loss to Dan Hooker at UFC Aukland, Felder announced that he would be stepping away from the sport, however, when this short notice opportunity presented itself the Irish dragon was willing to step in. While this event back in Februaury did appear to be a retirement the fighter later clarified he would instead be more selective with his fights.

Again utilising his grappling offence in the fourth, dos Anjos ate some decent shots in the center from Felder before finding some success at the fence. Grabbing Philadelphia native, Felder’s attention before the buzzer, dos Anjos managed a to open a significant cut on the forehead of the former.

Taking the fifth and final round as well as the 50-45 x2, and 47-48 split decision win, dos Anjos briefly tired for an arm-triangle during his initial session on top from six successful takedown shots, as Felder tried to find an answer for the Brazilian’s stifling top control.

LowKick MMA will be bringing you UFC Vegas 14: Felder vs. dos Anjos Results throughout the night (Sat. 14th. November 2020) from the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Taking main event honours in rather astonishing fashion, perennial lightweight contender, Paul ‘The Irish Dragon’ Felder moves from the commentary booth to the Octagon as he replaces grappling talent, Islam Makhachev on just five-days notice as he welcomes former division champion, Rafael dos Anjos back to 155-pounds.

Briefly contemplating retirement following his close split decision defeat to Dan ‘The Hangman’ Hooker in the main event of UFC Fight Night Auckland in February, Felder has made a u-turn, meeting dos Anjos in a high-stakes pairing.

Seeing a matchup with Makhachev scrapped for the second time in as many months, Niterol favourite, dos Anjos makes the lightweight walk for the first time since a unanimous decision defeat to former interim champion, Tony ‘El Cucuy’ Ferguson back in November 2016.

In four years since, the Brazilian has managed to score a 4-4 record at welterweight, taking notable wins over Tarec Saffiedine, Neil Magny, former champion, Robbie Lawler, and Kevin Lee, the latest in May of last year. Riding a two-fight skid, dos Anjos has fallen to unanimous decision defeats to both Leon Edwards and in his first Octagon appearance of this year, to Michael Chiesa at UFC Fight Night Raleigh in January.

In the night’s co-main event, renowned knockout ace, Abdul Razak Alhassan attempts to return to winning ways as he makes his second walk of the year against Khaos Williams – following a unanimous decision defeat to Mounir Lazzez at UFC Fight Island 1 in July.

Making his second appearance under the UFC’s banner, 10-1 prospect, Williams meets Alhassan following a cancelled March pairing with Laureano Staropoli. In his Octagon bow, the 26-year-old scored an impressive twenty-seven second knockout win over Alex Morono at UFC 247, whom he shares tonight’s event with.
