BAMMA 5 – Paul “Semtex” Daley and Ricco Rodriguez come in over weight

Paul “Semtex” Daley and Ricco Rodriguez both came in over the limit for their fights tomorrow night at BAMMA 5 in Manchester, England and will have an hour to lose the additional weight.

Rodriguez was first on to the scales out of the two, coming in at 216.8 pounds for his 215 pound catchweight fight with James McSweeney. Next up was Daley who weighed 172 pounds for his welterweight title clash with Japanese star, Yuya Shairai. Daley will have to lose two pounds as it’s a title fight

damn those two are real professionals

didnt rodriguez come in at 212 his last fight?

Daley def knows when he is not fighting on the big stage.

Daley has alot of growing up to do.

Daley did this same thing 2 fights ago, lost a % of his purse because of it. He did the same vs Hazlett.

Yeah this is definitely a pattern for him.

And this is the guy who gets the next shot at Nick Diaz I hope not.

Has anyone told him there is a MW division?

Shhhh, he likes calling out lightweights for fights.

I'd like to see him fight KJ Noons.

174 for MFC 19 vs John Alessio - 5 December 2008 - TKO win
171.5 for MFC 20 vs Nick Thompson - 20 February 2009 - Decision loss
172 for UFC 108 vs Dustin Hazlett - 02 January 2010 - KO win
171.75 for Shark Fights 13 vs Jorge Masvidal - 11 September 2010 - Decision win
170.4 for Bamma 5 vs Yuya Shirai - 25 February 2011 - Daley is a douche

Even though KJ isn't a lightweight and has never fought at 155lbs. I keed I keed.

Daley has missed weight over 10 times...

Thats a joke because he is a good fighter with a lack of disipline.

UPDATE: Paul Daley failed to make weight at the second time of asking has since announced his fight with Shirai will be a three-round contest. No more title fight.

I would love to hear Coker say, sorry Daley you blew it. You're not getting a title shot now.

As would I.

I would like to hear him say, "you're fighting Tyrone Woodley while Diaz calls out numerous SF MW's then fight s a boxing scrub."
