Additionally, BAMMA lightweight title holder Mansour “Tarzan” Barnaoui (10-2) puts his belt on the line against “The Ultimate Fighter: The Smashes” finalist Colin “Freakshow” Fletcher (9-3), and undefeated middleweight champ Scott Askham (11-0) faces Romanian challenger Ion Pascu (7-3).

BAMMA 14 takes place Dec. 14 at LG Arena in Birmingham, England. MMAjunkie.com confirmed with network officials that the card will air in the U.S. on AXS TV.

The hard-hitting Daley is a veteran of top promotions around the world, including the UFC, Strikeforce and Bellator MMA. He currently boasts a four-fight win streak that features four knockout wins and is 6-1 in his past seven overall appearances. He now meets “Junior Killer” da Silva, a 33-year-old Brazilian who has been fighting since 2000 and owns 15 of his 23 career wins by way of stoppage. He fought on AXS TV on Saturday night, as well, losing by submission in a failed bid for the Championship Fighting Alliance welterweight title.

Fighting professionally since 2011, French-Tunisian prospect Barnaoui was a surprise winner of the BAMMA lightweight belt, scoring a first-round TKO win over three-time UFC veteran Curt Warburton in September. He now meets Fletcher, who was released from the UFC following back-to-back losses to Mike Ricci and Norman Parke but has since bounced back with a decision win over Tim Newman at BAMMA 13.

Meanwhile, Askham earned his title with a decision win over Jorge Luis Bezerra at September’s BAMMA 13 event. Undefeated in his first 11 professional bouts, the Englishman has earned eight of his 11 career wins by stoppage. A veteran of Europe’s regional scene, Pascu steps into the title bout on the strength of a three-fight winning streak in which all three victories have come by way of knockout.

The BAMMA 14 lineup currently includes:
