The Russian Interpreter didn't like Paul Felder

[Rhood]

Did anyone notice that? LOL

Every time he was translating, he kept staring at Ankalaev.
Even at the very end he ignored Paul and refused to give him a handshake.
Didn't even acknowledge Felder's presence from the beginning to the end.

 

[LoveMyMMA]

Yeah translator is a disrespectful POS. Better not see him back in the octagon.

 

[Andrei Orlovski]

Looked nervous to me, maybe camera shy

 

[daPROFESSOR]

Be nice to the Russians!

 

[PPVpoints]

Interpreter was probably embarrassed by Akalev's performance.

 

[TR1]

Didn't get that feeling at all, he was just focused on that fighter.

I was more annoyed by the moron booing in the background.

Why do people just assume things and treat them as factual?


(That's a rhetorical question, btw.)

Maybe he thought his job was to translate words and didn't expect anyone to give the tiniest shit about him, since he's entirely irrelevant to the show other than facilitating two guys understanding each other?

Felder was on his game tonight.

It's basic etiquette.
If someone is talking to you, the proper etiquette is to face them.
The interpreter's body language was negative in that entire exchange. It looked like he wanted nothing to do with Paul.

 

[humdizzle]

he thought felder was part ukrainian

Different culture, hard to judge.


But seriously, that doesn't necessarily mean he doesn't like Paul. In fact, I didn't pick up on that vibe at all.

Yep, and he grows with each assignment/ card. Great fighter & commentator.

 

[Yep]

Some might say that interpreter is a problem

 

[GrantB13]

Strange, but who knows why he did it.

Completely OT but the other guy commentating with him -name never sticks - right before the main card started he said stick around the end of this card is Stocked!
