Unbeaten Pro Boxer Heather Hardy to Make MMA Debut at Bellator 180

Heather Hardy has signed with Bellator MMA and will make her promotional — and mixed martial arts debut — at Madison Square Garden.

The 35-year-old Brooklyn native, who compiled a 20-0 record in professional boxing, will square off against Alice Yauger in a flyweight bout on the Bellator 180 preliminary stream. Sherdog.com confirmed the pairing with a promotion official following an initial report from Yahoo Sports.

Bellator 180 takes place on June 24 and features a light heavyweight championship clash between Phil Davis and Ryan Bader.
