Retired UFC lightweight Paul Felder will join play-by-play man Jon Anik and color commentator Joe Rogan behind the desk for the UFC 263: “Adesanya vs. Vettori 2” pay-per-view (PPV) event, which takes place this Sat. night (June 12, 2021) inside Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona.

Felder will be temporarily stepping in for retired UFC heavyweight Daniel Cormier.

That’s according to MMA Junkie, which has Megan Olivi handling roving interviews, while Anik joins retired UFC middleweight Chael Sonnen and former Strikeforce lightweight champion Gilbert Melendez for the UFC 263 post-fight show, airing on ESPN+.

Bruce Buffer has the mic inside the Octagon.

UFC 263 will be headlined by the middleweight rematch between reigning 185-pound champion Israel Adesanya and top division contender Marvin Vettori. In the UFC 263 co-main event, Deiveson Figueiredo puts his 125-pound strap on the line (again) opposite flyweight nemesis Brandon Moreno.
