LAS VEGAS – After being smothered in his previous octagon appearance, “The Ultimate Fighter 9” winner Ross Pearson got the fight he wanted with Paul Felder and slugged it out for three rounds. In a close affair, Pearson (18-9 MMA, 10-6 UFC) edged Felder (10-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC) on scorecards with a persistent left hook while evading unpredictable counters coming every which way. The lightweight bout closed out the preliminary card of today’s UFC 191 event at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. It aired on FOX Sports 1 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead of a main card on pay-per-view
