A welterweight contest between Paul Daley and Brennan Ward has been added to Bellator 170, according to a report by ESPN.
Daley, who turns 34 early next year, had his five-fight win streak snapped by Douglas Lima in July. Lima went on to reclaim the Bellator welterweight title.
Ward has gone 5-1 over his last six, suffering only a submission loss to Evangelista Santos in April.
Bellator 170 takes place January 21 from The Forum and airs on Spike. In the main event, Tito Ortiz welcomes Chael Sonnen to the promotion in a light heavyweight contest.
