Both of whom are riding two-fight win streaks and the UFC was locked in a fifty-fifty decision between Condit and Kampmann. As expected, the decision has been made to opt for Condit. For British MMA fans on October 16, he has been offered the likelihood of a stand-up battle.

For the start of August, Hardy has confirmed he will return to Team Rough House in England in order to begin his training camp, although the bout has not been signed yet. Therefore, a deal will be signed before “The Outlaw” leaves the US.

Since Hardy’s defeat to Georges St-Pierre at UFC 111, he has been on a crash course in wrestling. Since entering the UFC, it is his first loss in five fights. In the Briton’s last appearance in England, for three rounds, fans saw him school Mike Swick. Against Condit, if he repeats the same then it would cement his place at the top end of the welterweight food chain.

Condit was seven seconds away from losing that fight to MacDonald, although he enters as the form fighter after wins over Jake Ellenberger and Rory MacDonald. The former WEC welterweight champion is backed by the highly respected gym of Greg Jackson and he loves to keep the fight upright.

Koscheck suffered an undisclosed injury in a recent fight against Paulo Thiago. The fight is scheduled to take place at Bell Centre in Montreal. It will feature a rematch light heavyweight champion fight between Lyoto Machida and Mauricio Rua. Although the bout is subject to Koscheck’s injury it has been confirmed for the given date. Koscheck also posted a message, on his Twitter site, stating that the fight will happen.

Daley has had a rapid rise to the top of the welterweight division. He has had impressive back-to-back victories over Dustin Hazelett and Martin Kampmann. He says he looks forward to his bout with Koscheck because he knows the fighter will stand long enough so he can do what he loves to do the most, knock him out.

Koscheck is a former wrestling champ. His stand up skills have given him a reputation on their own. His goal is to have a rematch with Georges St-Pierre; however, due to a number of situations this bout is down the road. On his Twitter message Koscheck posted, “Let the (*****) talking start. I am fighting Daley, May 1 co-main event UFC 113. This kid is going to get what he’s asking for.” If Koscheck is victorious over Daley it could be the victory to put him over the top.
