Last month, Hardy won a unanimous decision over Ben Sosoli at UFC on ESPN 6. Like many things with Hardy though, the outcome was full of controversy as Hardy used his inhaler between rounds, after asking a ringside official if it was okay. And despite the ringside official clearing its use, it was certainly not okay and resulted in the fight being overturned to a No Contest after the bout. Speaking with Russian media outlet RT Sports ahead of his fight this weekend, Hardy called the incident a rookie mistake and said he’s already moving on to what’s next.
