When I spoke to Dan Hardy a few days before his UFC on FUEL TV 5 fight, I asked him what he made of the complaints from British fight fans that the UFC was ignoring them during its quest for global domination.
After all, there was a time when the U.K. saw two or three UFC events a year. Now it’s down to one, and that one isn’t always so star-studded (no offense to Mr. Hardy).
For the earliest adopters of the UFC’s international efforts, how is it not supposed to feel like their fandom is being taken for granted?
