Following his win over Maurice Greene on the main card of Saturday’s UFC on Vegas 12 card, Greg Hardy sat down with the media to discuss his fight and his road from NFL player to UFC fighter.
From the start of the post-fight press conference, the MMA media handled Hardy with kid gloves. Hardy was asked questions about the “controversy” — he was found guilty in a bench trial of assault on a female and communicating threats (the charges were later dropped and expunged) — that seems to follow him. Question after question came across as if they were being asked by a public relations firm that had been hired to rehabilitate Hardy’s image.
