Having announced last week that James 'The Strabanimal' Gallagher(8-1) and Paul 'Semtex' Daley (40-17-2) will appear on the main card, Bellator unveiled their respective opponents at Tuesday's press conference. Gallagher will face California's Jeremiah 'The Kid' Labiano (12-6) in a 140-pound catchweight affair, whilst Daley announced he will take on Brazilian MMA veteran Erick 'The Tiger' Silva (20-10, 1 NC) at welterweight.
With Gallagher declaring that Bellator London is 'The Jimmy Show', his clash with Labiano is set to produce fireworks. Labiano has won three of his last four bouts and is coming off arguably the most impressive win of his professional career, having dispatched Justin Smitley with a first round TKO at Bellator 206. Labiano is an unpredictable fighter with a varied skillset, having secured an equal number of wins via KO/TKO, submission and decision.
Daley meanwhile is looking to return to winning ways following a close contest in his grudge match with Michael 'Venom' Page in February, while Silva clashed with Yaroslav Amosov in his last time out on the same card. Both known for their explosive styles, Daley for his knockout power and Silva for his submission skills – fans can undoubtedly expect a nonstop battle between these two athletes when they meet on June 22.
Additionally, Newcastle's own and Geordie Shore-reality TV star Aaron 'The Joker' Chalmers(4-1) is expected to compete on the card, while current Bellator Kickboxing women's flyweight champion Denise 'Miss Dynamite' Kielholtz(2-2) returns to the MMA cage looking to find similar success as a two-sport athlete.
