Paul Felder is one of the most respected guys on the roster. Such an OG
dude is one of most respectable fighters a fucking warrior
The hooker V felder fight is a true classic!
One of my top favorite fighter for sure 💯👍🏻
Where in da hell have I been , wow what a man
Baddest Muthafvker right there
How can anyone not like this guy.
@HGB 1 he's cool. Your just judging him off the mustache
@HGB 1 explain how he is pompous.
ask mcgregor
Casuals don’t like him
@HGB 1 sheesh, ur a terrible dude. Must have a terrible family life
God he’s so fucking motivational. Every second, so passionate, so persistent, so true to himself. It really makes me cry.
You see the struggle and his push through it, and you can’t be less than happy seeing it. Great job
He won that fight man
Against hooker
@@brum4692 100%. We got the wrong contender. Felder vs Poirier would have been a barn burner
@@kylecasey7890 it would. Hopefully that fight still happens would be such a good stand up fight
@Brett M how
Great mini doc. Especially eye opening watching how tough these weight cuts are on the fighters.
This only proves that companies like the UFC don't care about the fighters. There are preventative solutions to the abhorrent weight cutting practices.
@@Deceptikhan the fighters can fight in whatever wheigh class they wont. How the hell is that on the UFC smart-ass. And many of them are fighting in a class where they dont have to cut at all.
Yeah man that cut has to diminish the fighter , how can you put your body threw that and expect to come in 100%
@@luckyluke5233 there's not enough weight classes if you wanna move up you got to move up like 15 pounds.
@@darshandesai2304 @Darshan Desai yeah, thats not much at all? If you can go from 185+ down to 155 and get rid of 30 pounds.... I whould for sure rather get rid of the half amount of pounds and fight in 170. And tere are guys around 200 pound as well in 155 division.
Almost everybody in 170 division walks around 200+. There are enough classes for everyone. But many are willing to do it cause they think they will have a size and strength advantage. thats just the truth.
Glad to see Fleder getting the credit he deserves, what a savage
Couldn't agree more
@John KissTheCockOffOfHim in the ass?
Plau Fleedr
Facts
@John KissTheCockOffOfHim then he commentated a dwcs event not long after. savage, insane work mentality. also, shout out to your user name 😂
When they showed his girlfriend pretending to give him a drink of her soda, that is how intense those weight cuts are and on that short of notice? Insane dedication
Yeah
@@noammvs6154 Great input
@@reservoirfrogs2177 great input
Angel Pineda great input
Bit of a drama queen
Nothing but respect for Felder stepping in at such a short notice and putting in that kind of performance.
Also during the weigh in he started yelling at fighters for missing weight and the blood in his cuts started flowing because of the adrenaline. Guy is a legend
Powerful mini-documentary, really shows the 'real' side of the fight game.
You thought this shit was a game? it's only business
@@Cum007 but He was motivated
Paul's face when they said one judge gave it to him LOL
right? when bruce said "48-47" and he had this reaction like huh alright and then bruce said "Felder" and he was like WTF? lmaoo
Hope that judge never works for the UFC again. When you give a 48-47 to one guy and the other 2 judges give it 50-45 the other way you clearly have no capability to judge fights
@@jw7073 knowing the athletic commissions they probably gave the judge a raise and doubled his shifts
It's Chris Lee that's why lol
Bro 😅🤣😂😅🤣😂 fr I can't stop fucking laughing
What an animal. Everything stacked against him. Went the distance. Absolute legend.
This mini-doc was such a banger but they never mentioned the fact that Felder had to cut 20+ pounds within 5 frickin days to make weight and that's some next level shit mann!!! Huge round of applause for The Irish Dragon
Meanwhile Paulo Costa was 20 pounds over his division limit lol
i love how even in "enemy" teratory paul still gets that reaction when he says he might retire .... he has respect all around the world !! fan from uk
That was the only UFC i've ever been to and you could feel the disappointment flood the arena when Paul mentioned retirement
@@TheSelleycopter I could feel it through my pc haha glad he didn't retire!
@George Washington I don't really care that much but we had a pretty strict lockdown in New Zealand and now we're pretty much covid free. If you did the lockdown the right way the first time instead of complaining and not following it then you might might not be in the mess you are now 🤷
Your not from the UK mate
Get him back in the ring, on the mic somethin
If it’s the Irish dragon I’m watching and listening
He is back at the desk already bro
*octagon
@Victor Palacios not the “same shit” wtf
babeMinzgirlsszz.space
@Jared It's because it's an octagon shape.
One of the most legendary moments in MMA history. I still remember getting chills watching this live.
"Are you going to the hospital?"
"Nope, no"
*family cheers*
That's wholesome lmao
No disrespect to dan but i thought paul won
1,3,5
Absolutely
Dan hooker's 2020 was lit. Honestly he became a household name in 2 fights.
i had it either way or a draw it was so close
Depending on the judge you get, a takedown will skyrocket your chance of winning the round or do nothing. Hooker's takedown sealed the deal.
Glad he’s not retiring. Absolute legend
i think he said he might retire next fight it depends on how it goes
Lets not think about that
Yeah i'm also glad he's choosing to take more beatings that will ultimately cause irreversible brain damage that will cripple his future and probably cause him to die young. WAR FELDER!!!!!
@Satyromaniac lmao for real!!! The only real legend is the GOAT, lord Lobov 🐐
@Satyromaniac You become a legend for your actions only if people talk and remember you. Everything else is peanuts!
This guy deserves HOF for sure, dude goes out on his shield every time and never puts on a boring fight, Savage
this brought tears to my eyes. shows the realness of the sport and those who have the balls to do this for a living
"I need Rocky 3 in this round okay?"
@Kaemen Lathery Google global truth project and read "the Present" to see the truth about life/death. Nothing is more important than checking it is true, especially pgs 1-4
excellent..😀i can nicely imagine n. will love it watching
@George Washington Shut up.
Felder is such a good dude. Also announcing he’s good
He’s gonna be in the booth for a while so even if he retires he still has that. watching the ppv Saturday, it’s nice to hear joe but his heart isn’t in it anymore and his bias to underdogs is annoying to a lot of people
@George Washington k doctor
Great analyst and he knows it. That why he carved that career out of the UFC. Props.
Dan Hooker was gifted a victory because it was a main event in New Zealand.
Felder beat him
“I’ve met you before” I bet that random, unexpected, and unasked for comment gave him a boost of confidence when he really needed it
For those who really love this sport, let's take a moment to respect what these athletes go through for our entertainment; this is what sets MMA apart from all others. Felder: good fighter and good dude. Keep at it brother!
imagine how hard it is coming back from a KO. just a decision loss can be so brutal.
Seriously bro, no praise is worthy enough!
Theyre not doing it for ur entertainment theyre doing it for the money and ego tf
@@AndreiThaFish why cant it be for our entertainment and the money? and ego? these fighters are risking their body and mind to put out a product that we all love watching, shut the fuck up
@@AndreiThaFish they do it for everything you mentioned. You really don’t think a fighter cares whether or not you’re entertained by them? Of course they do, that’s what makes them money
This great man perfectly represents what the UFC should be to everyone. It is always inspiring to see people leave their comfort zone... Tremendous legend 🐉🇮🇪
This is grit. This is pure motivation. The entire story eclipses a win. Congrats Paul, this story will live on forever, motivating man forever.
"Man i got a 4 year old at home. That misses me every time i go away like this".... This hits hard
14:11 And so begins the legend of everybody's favorite judge
is there anybody keeping track of their bullshit?^^
Paul's reaction was hilarious tho. even he knew
@@Edward-ki9vg I think everyone made that face when they heard that 🤔🤨😂
@@phnix6242 All three judges scored it wrong. Felder clearly won round 4, so it should have been 49-46. The other two judges scored it 50-45 which just isn't true.
Blows my mind that Felder has never been KO’d... hell I don’t even think that he’s been wobbled
irish guys cant be knocked out lol
@@moonstaronline5865 were gonna see one stiff as a board when mcnuggets gets smoked
@@MrDangleSnipeCelly12 Conor's chin is one of his strenghts, he can take a good punch.
@@alexanderdos1207 i got dustin by k0 rd 4
@@moonstaronline5865 Um yesh they can you seen the conor wannabe irish fighter who got killed in the ring
I had no clue he took this fight on 5 days notice. Smh. This man is a legend.
I love you Paul. You struggled so much I can see that in this weight cut. You did that for us. Thank you. Your story will only grow
Meanwhile Chandler is still recovering from his weight cut in october and still isnt ready for a fight lol. Savage felder, hats off to you!
Chandler is such a damn diva, but Dana looooves him. Sucks
Its because he's here for a good time not a long time 😂
What about moreno and figueredo remaking weight in 3 weeks lol but chandler still since october. He didnt even fought in october
@@mtmchale26 he knows how to talk and sell himself that's why Dana loves him
@@carlosayala3675 deiveson was in the hospital too like 20 hours before being part of a FOTY candidate. not saying that's great, thats tremendous strain and i hope hes healthy, just saying i hope chandler performs reeeeal well after taking these months off to recover
Paul Felder is the only fighter so far who has beaten Charles "Do Bronx" Oliveira in the 55
Dont worry Charles gonna fold when he faces one of these tough heavy hitters.
@@hemkarki9378 I agree. He wasn’t tested in the Tony fight.
What about cerrone
@@Rui_Martins_2000 I'm a die-hard Cowboy fan. But I don't believe he has what it takes to beat Charles O.
@@hemkarki9378 Charles O is a helluva lot tougher than you realize........obviously. I picked him to beat Ferguson, and he beat him much easier than I anticipated.
I love this guy.. company man, amazing fighter and great all round person!.. props and respect to Paul Felder he's awesome.
Man, Felder is the best. Great guy, awesome fighter and just a savage. 5 days notice is unbelievable. I hope he’s able to get in there one more time!
Felder is one of my favourite fighters always gave it his all
Paul has so much heart!!!! True fighter!
This was incredibly made! Well done! I almost shed a tear. Paul Felder is an ultimate bad ass!
This never gets old. Especially when I don’t wanna go to the gym THINKING iam tired or I worked out yesterday. Chills chills let’s go!!!!!!!
If thier is a fighter to love and respect, it's Paul Felder, his attitude, perseverance and the willpower of this absolute legend is astonishing. We love you Paul!🇨🇮🐉
"WEIGHT CUT" most gruelling, brutual thing for fighters than the fight and whole fight camp itself.
weight cutting is so stupid. UFC needs to get rid of that archaic practice.
@Francis The Predator 2.0 remind you of khabib?
@Francis The Predator 2.0 shit, I mean remind you of anyone?
@Francis The Predator 2.0 dude fr hust saying he wants to fight gsp at 155 shows he’s a bitch, he walks around at 170 I bet
Incredible video great production/editing. Much respect to all the fighters.
Dude is badass, love watching him fight and love listening to him commentate. All around good guy, and shows true respect. Rarity in alot of human beings.
Man that moment made me so happy when it happened..." I'm not going anywhere right now" one of my favorite ufc guys all around from fighter to commentator. A very close 2nd to the man bisping himself
He actually did really really good in that RDA fight. If it wasn’t RDA he was fighting and, instead, someone one or two ranks lower he would’ve beaten them. Really good performance
Yeah but this dude should've just said no bro like god man
I'm sure he could've won his next match if he didn't take this one
@@AsapMilk no
He is every bit the gentleman and engaging to all around him. Gracious in defeat and humble when winning, And tough as nails. A mans man.
great piece by the ufc. got nothing but love for felder as a fighter and cage side play by play commentator. much respect and keep on going
Who’s out here disliking this video? Shame on you
Indeed
Pure jackasses
Some people have issues watching others shed tears
Irish hating English folks
CZcams has a bot that dislikes a vid for every amount of views. I don't think anyone disliked this. Maybe 1 or 2
Phenomenal mini documentary and the title of the video is so short, snappy and direct.
I like the supreme effort he took on in 5 days.
Insane effort for short notice fights regardless of the current level of UFC fighter!!
We r blessed with so many awesome moments/fights/people in this sport. We often forget about a lot of them. Glad to see this getting the shine it deserves!
So genuine, no one like this guy! On 5 days notice?! Can't walk away from that! Nothin but respect OG 🙏💯
Felder is one of the badass fighters in the UFC
Felder's walk out was awesome that night, just his difference in demeanor vs when he's on commentary vs a fight is cool to see. Another cool moment was Duke motivating him in the corner at the end of the 4th, complete demeanor change after Duke mentioned his daughter so much so that I think Whitman mentioned it during the fight.
Everytime I’m doing cardio and struggling, I replay this video. Paul fielder is such a savage! RESPECT!
You are such a warrior dude. Thanks for motivating us to take on challenges, even when we doubt ourselves.
Nobody should ever miss weight again after watching this
Him doing this inspired me so much. Dudes truly a legend and a role model. Much respect
I was sitting here sore, my body, & mind feeling physically beat up, but knowing I need to go get my training in. I have a lot to do today, & watching Paul during that weight cut just fanned that flame enough for me to go get warmed up. Paul is a stud, & seems to be a great role model, & ambassador for the sport. In a world full of of Jon Joneses be a Paul Felder.
All the respect in the world to this guy, his dad would be and was proud of him. I worked with him for years here in Philly and young Tom too.
You just have to love Paul Felder. Such a genuine and respectful Sportsman 🎊🎉🎊😍😍
Paul Felder é literalmente um Guerreiro...👏👏👏
What Always amazes me ans sometimes brings me to tears is the most fascinating thing:
Killing one another and then wrapping it up with a hug.
It is a mystery.
It is massive amounts of respect for leaving it all in there
Watching this on my tv and just had to comment I’m so glad they did a whole piece (monetised to bits mind you ) glad he’s being appreciated like so
I love Paul Felder, amazing human being and truly a savage 💪🏻👊🏻 respect for everything you do for the sport!
What a stand up guy Paul is. No one will never truly know what it is like having to cut weight on 5 days notice. Those short notice fights are something you never here talked about to much. That is because those men that step in that cage are a different breed of individual. They are true warriors, who put everything on the line every single time they step into that octagon. Nothing but mad respect.
Bravo, Sir. Truly inspirational. UFC needs to do something with these weight cuts!!!!!
Love the inside look at fighters' lives, minds, and drives.
Glad to see this becoming a UFC staple.
Weight cutting that extreme is insane. We really need more weight classes.
@Michael Thomas pretty much. Don’t blame divisions because people choose to do crazy cut. That said, 165 and 175 would make sense but still fighters need to be responsible for their own weight.
@Michael Thomas true but I still think we need more weight classes
@@bargepoled it'll shallow the talent pool and ruin mma like boxing
People should fight at their natural weight
@@David-ye2ns nah. The talent pool is huge
i see this guy and i think, "I wanna be Pauls friend"
@Satyromaniac lmao. quit projecting.
@Satyromaniac you seem cool
@Satyromaniac I didn't misuse projecting, genius.
You're projecting your insecurities on someone who is comfortable enough inside of their own skin to admit they'd like to befriend someone. Just because you find it hard to tell another person how you feel about them doesn't make it fruity when someone else can. It just shows how little you know yourself and the world.
@Satyromaniac nice try though, ya dingus.
@Satyromaniac haha Ill be yours too amigo.
Felder is a legend. And a good guy. Love seeing his fights he always brings it
I think the ufc should start doing these kinds of things alot more it's really cool to what the fighters actually go through especially the weight cuts they are brutal and paul is the man
Dos Nachos is the latest victim of the Felder curse now
@Hussein Hammoud i think it was that if u beat felder, ur gonna lose ur next haha
Hooker lost 💀💀💀
Gotta love the heart of this guy
Powerful and moving. What a guy
I could not imagine! Much respect
At the post fight presser Paul said “I can promise you I ain’t going anywhere right now” then a few months later he retired without another fight lol. Can’t blame him though what a legend!
Here after retirement. What a beautiful fighter and man. Enjoy your triathlons
No homo ?
What a legend. Made me cry a little.
Felder is a true warrior. I genuinely look forward to seeing you keep smashing life and making people so proud!! Do you brother and keep talking with your family. Peace
Paul fielder aka the dude that taught me how to throw a spinning back fist in ufc 4... much love for this man
Paul Felder beat Dan Hooker
Run it back as a 5 rounder
But he robbed Edson Barbosa so it balances out
@@CJ-hx9du Actually I'd hooker wining 3 rounds , and paul beating barbosa :)
You see how it wokrs , so I'm fine because both fights were very close
@@animalkingdom2831 what he didnt beat barboza at all 🤦♂️
@@CJ-hx9du Truth, Dan Hooker is the man but facts are facts.
CZcams recommended this video to me and, knowing that Felder recently retired, it’s very sad, how can anyone not like this guy?
Heart Of A Warrior Very Inspiring Thank You
I was never a felder fan until this fight, I always liked his persona but until he stepped up and took this fight I wasn’t a true fan. I AM NOW!!
I wAs NeVer a Fan.. UnTill _____ .. shut th fkup
That fight with the hangman was awesome, Paul brings it every time. If he's on a PPV I'm buying knowing I'm getting a good deal.
Paul won that fight !
*Thank you Paul just for being you.* As an old school fight fan from all the way back to UFC 3 I remember the PRIDE guys and the original UFC roster. I respect the new fighters, don't get me wrong. But you definitely have that grit those guys had. No fear whatsoever. You didn't just set an example for fighters on that roster. You set an example for people everywhere from all walks of life. I want to live my life like that now. I want to take chances and make sacrifices. I don't ever want to tell myself "I can't." Never again! You woke something inside me. I don't know you and I know we'll never meet but just by taking that fight you inspired me to be a better person. Thank you Paul Felder, I'll never forget this.
I clicked on the video, didn't hear a word yet, but because of Felder, a card was saved, he cut weight, MADE the weight, and went all 5 rounds. THAT'S why I liked the video.
The hardest MAN in the UFC period! Love this guy 💪🏽
Beautifully done... As most of the time. But Jesus, those weigh cuts! I'd love to see the ufc coming up with a solution to this. That feels insane and inhuman sometimes.
It's nothing to do with the ufc bud. Fighters choose what weight to fight at then lose the relevant weight. No one makes them cut wieght. It's a tactical thing.
Bro.. fighter is free to choose what weight or division they want to go and build up their career .. this all their choice.. not UFC, dana tell so many time.. if you can't make weight,go to upper division.. but they all refuse to go because of easy fight the smaller fighter
@@isDatBoi yeah maybe protect them with stricter rules. Idk
Absolute stud, this is just another reason we love Paul Felder. Just flat out a warrior and a great guy on top of all the talent.
I'm so happy the ufc appreciate their studs........ Fair play much deserved for this
Hard to imagine how Paul can stand straight with the massive pair he's got.
Irish dragon!! whether you’re in the cage or on the mic I love ya Paulie
Does Felder sound Irish to you, he mom isn't 100% Irish he is a plastic paddy wanna be
@@jackmehoff915 and who are you exactly?
Now one of my favourite fighters!
One word... inspirational...
Nobody on earth competes this hard it’s why I fell in love and almost can’t take other sports as serious as I used to I respect them but would they do this
Paul is a bad ass !
Absolutely
great video. so inspiring.
Love your work dragon, thank you for everything you did for this sport. Love from Pittsburgh
