Paul Daley is a British welterweight fighter best known for his knockout punches and trash talk. In 2009 he made his UFC debut, winning his first two fights impressively. At UFC 113 he faced Josh Koscheck. Frustrated by Koscheck's ability to outwrestle him, Daley ended the fight by sucker-punching Koscheck after the fight ended. UFC President Dana White promptly fired Daley, stating he would never fight in the UFC again.
