WHAT: Interview on MMA LIVE Thursday on ESPN2
Daley will appear on MMA Live to discuss this Saturday’s STRIKEFORCE: Henderson vs. Babalu event at Scottrade Center in St. Louis, MO., live on SHOWTIME® (10 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the West Coast).
Daley will face fellow knockout artist Scott Smith in a SHOWTIME televised bout.
Daley, an exciting British bomber, and Smith, a superb Muay Thai striker with tremendous one-punch knockout power, have a combined 42 victories. But only five of those wins have come via decision, and all five belong to Daley.
The 5-foot-9, 27-year-old Daley earned a decision over Jorge Masvidal last Sept. 11. Prior to that, Daley’s last victory on points came on July 1, 2006.
Daley, who has compiled a highlight reel of impressive knockout victories, has competed against some of the best since turning professional in June 2003. Three of his most significant victories came against Masvidal, a 2:24, first-round KO (punches) over Dustin Hazelett on Jan. 2, 2010, and a 2:31, first-round TKO (punches) over Martin Kampmann on Sept. 19, 2009.
In the main event of the stacked STRIKEFORCE card at Scottrade Center, MMA superstar Dan Henderson, of Temecula, Calif., will face former STRIKEFORCE light heavyweight world champion Renato “Babalu” Sobral, of Brazil, in a rematch between world-class 205-pounders. In other televised fights, former world champ “Ruthless” Robbie Lawler will face 2000 Olympic Games silver medalist Matt “The Law” Lindland in a matchup of 185-pound contenders, world-ranked heavyweight Antonio “Big Foot” Silva will battle streaking star Mike “Mak” Kyle, and hard-hitting Benji “Razor” Radach will square off with former Univ. of Tennessee linebacker turned rising MMA star Ovince Saint Preux.
