Paul Daley receives legal document from Bjorn

Has received a legal document from Bellator this morning, signed by Bellator CEO, Bjorn Rebney and Legal representatives of the promotion.

Despite, Bellator being aware of a legal matter preventing me from obtaining a P-1 visa to compete in the USA, and therefore making it unable for me to fulfill certain terms of my contract, Its seems as though they are attempting to stop me from earning a living while awaiting a decision that is out of my control, and is not expected until Late April 2013.

This situation has been developing daily, since Oct 2012 with back and forth emails between myself, my management and Bellator representatives (including Bjorn, and Talent relations officer Sam Caplan, to name a few)

I would like to offer full disclosure to the MMA MEDIA. Feel free to contact me here, on my facebook.

He signed the contract, Bellator contracts I believe are exclusive but they can grant you permission to fight outside the org, I believe its the same as SF was.

They've allowed guys to do it but they just saw their champ get smashed. Its one thing if its a guy they dont really have high hopes for and they allow him to get a few fights but Daley is a star for them. Whatever happened it fucked Bellator because he was their main attraction for the WW tournament on spike, he screwed that up and now wants to fight in another org. Bellator aint having it.

They're not stopping him from earning a living just stopping him from fighting. Time to start thinking outside the box Paul. Phone Post

Bellator legally threatening their fighters...  what's new?

I don't have Facebook but can you ask him why he sucker punched Josh, Thanks! Phone Post

They put promotion money behind him, he should have to pay it back.

They wasted their time and he wants to walk out scott free?

It's a good message to send I think.

This. Bellator, zuffa or anyone else for the matter. Phone Post


Bellator and Zuffa arent even close to the same in this matter, Zuffa has full exclusive contracts, Bellator has the option to allow a fighter to take fights outside of the org.

In this matter they are just choosing not to allow him to fight outside the org, which they have every right to do, he signed the contract.

Karma is a mother_ _ _ _ _! Phone Post

actually when zuffa signed lombard (years ago) and he was unable to get a visa, they released him so he could make a living somewhere else.

 

I thought that being arrested for assault would keep him from making a living

Looks like Semtex got sucker punched. Ironic.
