NEWARK, N.J. — Dan Hardy was so little known on the international MMA scene when he made his UFC debut less than 18 months ago that the fight didn’t even find its way on to the UFC 89 broadcast.
Somehow, in the impossibly short span between then and now, he is within 24 hours of possibly unseating the man who many consider the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world to become the welterweight champion. And Hardy is loving every single minute of the wild ride.
The British import basked in the spotlight one last time before it counts for real, entertaining the crowd at the UFC 111 weigh-ins. Walking in wearing a T-shirt with the words “I HATE DAN HARDY” across it and with red contact lenses in his eyes, the Mohawked, heat-seeking Hardy appeared raring to go.
