Paul Daley says Josh Koscheck rematch would shatter Kimbo-Shamrock ratings record

It's hard to blame Paul Daley for being happy with how things are turning out in 2015

Not only did the veteran British pugilist return to North America after a long absence, but he's got his next several fights laid out for him in a manner pro fighters rarely get to experience.

"It's perfect," Daley said in a phone interview with MMAFighting.com. "This is exactly the way you want it as a fighter."

The welterweight will meet Dennis Olson on Friday at Bellator 140; he's expected to compete in a kickboxing fight in Bellator's combined show with Glory in San Jose in September; and somewhere down the road, it sure looks like he'll get a long-awaited shot at redemption against rival Josh Koscheck, an opportunity he thought he might never get.
