Being banned from a fast-food restaurant is a great way of being motivated to start a diet. If only my local taqueria put me on a "Do Not Serve" list, I'd easily lose the extra 20lbs I'm carrying around since I discovered the place. Unfortunately, being banned from the UFC isn’t exactly the best thing for an MMA fighter’s career. In the case of Paul Daley, it was something we bummed out about for quite a while considering the exciting mix of power and striking techniques ‘Semtex’ brought to the toughest welterweight division in the world. Luckily, Paul Daley isn’t banned from Zuffa, despite what Dana White said about never fighting for the company again. After being immortalized on MMA’s low-light reels around the world for his unsportsmanlike conduct in his fight with Josh Koscheck, he returns to Strikeforce on March 3rd against Kazuo Misaki in a fight with title implications for the winner. Semtex is looking to make this his third straight win, and to be sure he wins by infinitely-looping-gif-worthy KO, he’s set sail to Tiger Muay Thai for the last few weeks of his training camp; where he lets us all know about how he feels about idolizing people.

Kos would just lay-n-pray like he did in his last fight with Pierce. Did anyone else see him look at the clock while just laying there??

I want to see the rematch under the Dynamite promotion, with the first round being K1 rules, and the second being MMA.. I'm hoping that Kos would be unconscious before the second round starts.

Remember...
Paul Daley has
missed weight in the UFC
missed weight in other promotions
sucker punched KOS
spoken bad about the UFC

Why should anyone let him back in? Seriously...
Not to mention it took him two fights to speak humbly about things... He bagged the fans after the sucker punch as if they should be cheering him?

I don't know... seems like there are thousands of fighters with a good and level head I'd give a spot before him.

Just saying...

You forgot the hospital fight, which is as bad or worse than the sucker punch IMO. Although it wasn't televised so didn't bother DW all that much. Honorable mention goes to the other times he started a fight in the cage (Nashville , first Noons fight).

Paul seems like an emotional guy who got trolled by Kos. Of course the was at fault but If the refs had enforced the "abusive language in the fighting area" rule, the sucker pucnch may have been avoided at that time.

really good vid, its good to see paul as he actually is, rather than that view of him as a sucker punching douche

dana needs to get over it. people have been guilty of way worse things than that and been allowed back into the ufc. honestly, who wouldn't want to sucker punch that fool koscheck?

thats not Daley's style at all. He stands and trades no matter what and there's almost no one in the division that can stand with him

He's been getting better. It looked good against Woodley.

He said he looks up to people, not idolizes them. I.e. he has role models. Idols are different.

Paul Daley is a true fucking warrior, his fights are exciting as hell, pure entertainment, get this guy back in the UFC for some fon matchups, as long as fight starts standing he's got a shot to knock your head off.

I think they will keep him in strikeforce, they need a few big names to keep the interest.

Great video.

I'd like to see him in UFC again, he was great before the Kos fight, hell they called him Semtex for a reason. Sucker punch aside, give him another shot.
