In the co-main event of tonight’s (Sat. April 27, 2019) UFC Fort Lauderdale event from the BB&T Center in Sunrise, Florida, former NFL star Greg Hardy met Dmitrii Smoliakov inside the Octagon.
Hardy pressured Smoliakov right out of the gate, and the Russian clearly wanted to get the takedown as soon as possible. Unfortunately for him, he was unable to do so, and Hardy imposed his power early after landing some big punches. Eventually, Hardy dropped Smoliakov to the canvas, before finishing him off on the ground with some hard ground-and-pound.
The first-round stoppage was the first win of Hardy’s UFC career. Check out how the mixed martial arts (MMA) community reacted to the co-main event finish:
What a joke of a fight. Smoliakov might be the worst fighter on the UFC roster, he ran away and didn't look like he wanted to be in there.

Greg Hardy sets his sights on fighting two big UFC heavyweight stars. Those names are former UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic and title contender Derrick Lewis.
Hardy will step back in the Octagon for his second UFC fight against Dmitrii Smoliakov. This heavyweight showdown will serve as the co-headliner of this weekend’s UFC Fort Lauderdale event.
While doing a recent interview with TMZ, Hardy made it known that he has these two fighters in his sights and hopes to elevate and graduate when he competes against them.
“They’re not in my mind,” the ex-NFL star says of the UFC heavyweight beasts … “They’re in my sights, brother. They’re locked in. When I go there, and I do fight these guys — hopefully soon enough when I do elevate and graduate — it’s going to be Goliath vs. Goliath.”
In his latest fight, Lewis faced Junior dos Santos in the main event of UFC on ESPN+ 4 on March 9, 2019 where he lost the fight via TKO in the second round. On the flip side, Miocic lost the heavyweight strap to Daniel Cormier on July 7, 2018, in the main event at UFC 226 by knockout in the first round.
UFC Fort Lauderdale is set to take place on Saturday, April 27, 2019, at BB&T Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The main card will air on ESPN+ at 9 p.m. ET. The preliminary card will be split-broadcasted on ESPN at 7 p.m. ET and ESPN 2 at 5:30 p.m. ET.
