Hardy’s career is marred by controversy stemming from a domestic violence dispute settled outside of court. His UFC debut against Allen Crowder ended in a disqualification loss for Hardy after inflicting an illegal knee. This only spurred his controversial status. Since then Hardy has lined up two straight , first round TKO wins. He first finished Dmitry Smoliakov at 2:15 in the first round to earn his first UFC win. He most recently TKO’d Juan Adams in just 45 seconds to begin a winning streak in the UFC.
Danho made waves on the European circuit before debuting in the UFC. He first faced Daniel Omiela?czuk, losing a technical majority decision. In his last outing he went three hard rounds with Christian Colombo, in a bout that ended in a majority draw.
