Review: 2011-09-10, Paul Daley (27-11-2) after suffering two consecutive defeats against two of the best welterweight fighters in the world (one versus Nick Diaz, fight valid for the Strikeforce Welterweight Championship, and the last one against Tyron Woodley), faced another tough mma fighter: the Bulgarian Jordan Radev (23-4-0). Both fighters started strong and the first two rounds were very exciting, unfortunately the pace slows down in the third but the match remains one of the best mma fights of 2011.
