A pair of welterweights looking to build on two-fight winning streaks will meet at Bellator 241.
MMA Junkie on Monday learned from Bellator officials that British slugger Paul Daley (42-17-2 MMA, 8-4 BMMA) and fellow knockout artist Sabah Homasi (13-8 MMA, 3-2 BMMA) will meet on the main card of the March 13 event, which streams live on DAZN from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.
Daley looks to build on the strength of back-to-back wins over Saad Awad and Erick Silva. “Semtex” makes no attempt to hide his intentions in the cage, owning an incredible 33 knockout victories among his 42 career wins, while never earning a result via submission.
Meanwhile, Homasi returned to the Bellator cage for the first time in nearly five years with an August knockout over Micah Terrill. The result marked Homasi’s second consecutive victory following a disappointing run of three losses under the UFC banner that saw “The Sleek Sheik” released from the organization.
With the addition to the card, Bellator 241 now includes:
- Champ Patricio Freire vs. Pedro Carvalho – for featherweight title; grand prix quarterfinal
- Emmanuel Sanchez vs. Daniel Weichel – featherweight grand prix quarterfinal
- Paul Daley vs. Sabah Homasi
