Video: Before UFC 223, watch the wicked elbows Paul Felder landed on Stevie Ray

Don’t question the effectiveness of Paul Felder’s elbows. It’s a lesson his past two opponents, including Stevie Ray, have learned the hard way.

This past July at UFC Fight Night 113 in Scotland, Felder blasted Ray with some brutal first-round ground and pound. Check it out above in the UFC’s latest “KO of the Week” feature.

And catch Felder (15-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC), who’s No. 15 in the USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA lightweight rankings, back in action when he fights No. 13 Al Iaquinta (13-3-1 MMA, 8-2 UFC) at UFC 223.

UFC 223 tales place April 7 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., and Felder vs. Iaquinta is part of the pay-per-view main card following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.
