Dan Hardy: Why He Can Still Be a Threat at Welterweight

Dan Hardy was in a bad place in his career after coming off of a submission loss to Chris Lytle back in August 2011.

Hardy ended up having a career rebirth of sorts. His loss to Lytle was the low point of a four-fight losing skid. He was given what seemed to be a final chance at keeping his UFC job when he fought Duane Ludwig at UFC 146.

Before the first round of that fight was out, Hardy managed to save his job with a nasty knockout due to a perfectly timed left hook and subsequent elbow strikes. It also earned him his first “Knockout of the Night” bonus.

Hardy announced to the welterweight division that he was here to stay. He next took a fight against solid competitor Amir Sadollah in Nottingham, England.

In this fight, Hardy displayed his vastly improved wrestling and ground control. He was determined to use his new skills and managed to do so successfully, as he landed numerous takedowns on Sadollah.

He ended up taking a unanimous decision victory for his well-rounded effort. Hardy has been long known as a threat on his feet, but by adding wrestling to his repertoire, Hardy has given his future opponents even more to worry about.

Hardy is still a threat at welterweight today. His striking is top notch, and he has power to boot. With his ever-improving wrestling and grappling game coming along, Hardy has given himself a good chance to make his way back to the top of the division.

“The Outlaw” is currently riding a two-fight winning streak, and with his new and improved skills, he should be a problem for any fighter at welterweight.

Among the fights scheduled are a light-heavyweight tilt between Ryan Bader and Vladimir Matyushenko, Clay Guida’s featherweight debut against Hatsu Hioki and a match where Canadian TJ Grant will look to continue his winning streak against Matt Wiman.

The main card is an excellent way to ring in the New Year and it will start off with a contenders fight in the featherweight division. Erik Koch will take on Ricardo Lamas to potentially determine the next challenger to Jose Aldo.

A clash of two exciting lightweights is also on tap for this event, as Anthony Pettis and Donald Cerrone will throw down to determine the next challenger to Benson Henderson’s lightweight crown.

The night doesn’t end there as the co-main event features an epic clash of 205’ers as the red-hot Glover Teixeira will welcome Quinton “Rampage” Jackson back into the Octagon. It will be Jackson’s first fight since his loss at UFC 144.

The night will end with a bang as flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson will defend his title against new challenger and TUF 14 winner John Dodson.

Both men are coming off wins, with Johnson beating Joseph Benavidez for the inaugural flyweight title, and Dodson knocking out Jussier da Silva.

UFC on FOX 6 is a great way to be kicking off an action-packed 2013 schedule.
