Prior to this loss to Perry, Felder produced three straight wins in the lightweight division, defeating Alessandro Ricci, Stevie Ray and Charles Oliveira, all by TKO or knockout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul Felder is now 16-4 overall, and is likely to climb into the lightweight top-10 on the strength of his win over James Vick. Hopefully, he heals up quickly \u2014 perhaps in time for a fight with the winner of Justin Gaethje and Edson Barboza&#8217;s upcoming bout, which he called for after his win over Vick. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This article first appeared on&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/\"><em>BJPENN.COM<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;on 2\/18\/2019.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you needed any further evidence that UFC lightweight contender Paul Felder is a badass, here it is.
