Paul Daley said today he no longer is a Bellator fighter. But Bellator begs to differ.

After a recent rift with the promotion, Daley (40-15-2 MMA, 6-2 BMMA) apparently requested to be released from his Bellator contract. He took to social media today to say the company obliged, which would make the welterweight veteran a free agent.

But a senior Bellator official today told MMAjunkie that Daley’s online claim is not true, and as of now he remains under contract with the promotion.

In his announcement (via Facebook), Daley said he wants to fight elsewhere over the final 18 months of his career after he wraps up the paperwork:

Maybe it's best he never fights MVP. Seems like he might have a mental breakdown of he loses.

Doubt the Asian orgs would want him.
Bellator is unheard of, and they're pretty big on respect.
So the last time they saw him fight was when he was spanked by Josh Koscheck and the only punch he could land was well after the bell when his opponent was walking off.

Daley is such a good fighter but seems to always have drama follow him.
