As Paul Felder embarks on the journey to Fight Island as part of the commentating team, a hilarious conversation of his with a Twitter user seems to have caught the attention of many.
‘The Irish Dragon’ has been subject to trolling since he declared that he would come out of his retirement. The trolls intensified after Felder commented on the fight between Dustin Poirier and Dan Hooker. Of course, witnessing such a war would rile up the adrenaline in anyone. However, Felder has the platform to make these fights come true.

He said that he would accept any fight with fighters like Hooker and ‘The Diamond’. A clipping of an interview with MMAFighting.com wherein he said this surfaced on Social Media. And yet again, the fans decided to have a go at him.
The users ridiculed Felder for using the “ploy” of retiring and then coming back. They even brought Conor McGregor and Henry Cejudo into the conversation, both of whom retired recently, to add to the context.
Surprisingly, Felder decided to clap back at the trollers with insults of his own.
I’d like to see you guys rematch the frozen pizza ya burned in your moms oven last night.

Yet another targeted Felder as he asked the Lightweight to carry on with retirement. However, instead of ignoring the comment, Felder decided to converse with the user.
Paul Felder is not happy with mean comments on Twitter
On the same thread, a user asked Felder to let fighting again be, and carry on with commentating instead. However, Felder didn’t take too kindly to the “advice” and replied to the user. He wrote,
“Does it make you feel good saying that? Now would you say that to my face man to man?”

Well, the power of social media does employ every person to cast their thoughts without the fear of consequences. That is unless you’re a celebrity or someone in a position of power. Ironic indeed. Highlighting the same, the Twitter user replied,
“Nope you’d kick my a** that’s why I said it on twitter”
