Paul Daley claimed he wasn’t worried about anything Lorenz Larkin offered in their fight, and ultimately he backed up his words with a victory in Saturday’s Bellator 183 co-main event.
Daley (40-15-2 MMA, 6-2 BMMA) talked a big game prior to his welterweight encounter with Larkin (18-7 MMA, 0-2 BMMA). It paid off, because “Semtex” earned a second-round knockout victory in the Spike-televised co-headliner at SAP Center in San Jose, Calif., to put himself back in the mix of 170-pound contenders.
Check out the top Twitter reactions to Daley’s victory over Larkin at Bellator 183.
