It looks like former NFL player Greg Hardy is one fight away from making his UFC debut. According to a report from ESPN, Hardy will take another bout outside the UFC, competing for Island Fights in Florida on December 21st. And if he is as successful there as he has been in prior bouts, his ticket to the Octagon will be punched.
The 30-year-old Hardy (3-0) made his pro debut on Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series in June, stopping his opponent by KO in under a minute. Another Contender Series fight followed, where he picked up a KO victory in just 17 seconds.
