Earlier today British welterweight Paul Daley revealed via Facebook that a bout agreement for his next Bellator MMA contest has been signed. A few hours later he dropped a major hint that it will be against bitter rival Josh Koscheck in 2016.

The pair first collided at UFC 113 in 2010 and have remained bitter rivals ever since with insults going back and forth. Wrestling specialist Koscheck walked out of UFC 113 with a unanimous decision victory but the fight was remembered for Daley throwing a punch out of frustration after the final round had ended.

Power striker Daley (37-13-2) has won 10 of his last 12 bouts, including 7 knockout victories. In contrast to “Semtex”, Koscheck (17-10) is on a 5-fight losing streak, and will be looking for a big victory over a famous rival in his first bout under Bellator.
