Greg Hardy knockout loss: MMA fans delight as Greg Hardy suffers brutal knockout loss

MMA fans have been left satisfied this week after controversial former UFC fighter Greg Hardy was knocked out during his bout for Team Combat League boxing.

Hardy made his UFC debut in 2019 after impressing on Dana White's Contender Series 16 one year prior. The 'Prince of War's' time in the UFC didn't prove to be a success however as he was released in March 2022 with a 4-5 (1) record while on a three-fight losing streak.

The controversy surrounding the American stems from 2014 when he was playing in the NFL. The 34-year-old was arrested and found guilty of assaulting his former girlfriend. The case was later dismissed due to the victim not appearing in court, but an investigation led by the NFL found evidence of four instances of Hardy's physical violence, including strangling.

Following his release from the UFC, Greg Hardy has since opted to become a boxer and most recently competed against Alexander Flores for Team Combat League, losing via KO.

MMA fans have since had a field day with the video, with many happy to see Hardy take another loss. One fan even wrote they 'loved' seeing a woman beater get knocked out.

Another fan joked that the KO loss for Hardy is proof that God may in fact exist.

Twitter user @grandaddy_zach stated that the loss was universal Karma for Greg Hardy's arrest.
