Quoteworthy:
“[I want] someone who has a name and will be a challenge. I’ve called out Matt Hughes as he’s a big name and would be a challenge for me. People are saying I have got no wrestling, so watch me beat the best wrestler ever in the welterweight division. I don’t want to call Matt Hughes names or nothing like that. I don’t need to make fun of him — he did a great job of that himself when he was the coach on the Ultimate Fighter — but it is a fight I’d like. Beating Hughes would make a little noise and I am all about making a bit of noise.”
–- On the heels of finishing Martin Kampmann in his Octagon debut at UFC 103 from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, on Sept. 19, former Elite XC standout Paul Daley sets his sights on ex-champion Matt Hughes, joining AKA boys Josh Koscheck and Mike Swick in a long line of hungry contenders gunning for Mr. Country Breakfast. The heavy-handed “Semtex” vaulted himself to the upper echelon of welterweights after replacing an injured “Quick” at last month’s event, but was his knockout over “The Hitman” enough to get him a one-way ticket to Farmtown? Or does Hughes have bigger fish to fry?
