Former welterweight title contender Dan Hardy confirms his UFC release

They say ask and you shall receive. In Dan Hardy’s case, it’s getting released from his active UFC contract.

In a recent conversation with Submission Radio, the former welterweight title contender went on record to appeal for his release from the company’s active roster. He hasn’t competed since 2012 after being diagnosed with a heart condition.

The only thing that’s happened is I’ve asked two different people for my release from the UFC. Because, obviously with one contract coming to an end, it makes sense for me to leave with my fight contract as well.
