Dan Hardy no longer ‘working directly’ with UFC after ‘disagreement’ with employee

Dan Hardy has been conspicuously absent from recent UFC broadcasts, and according to the one-time welterweight title challenger and longtime commentator, that is no accident.

Following a report from The Wrestling Observer, Hardy on Twitter revealed that he is no longer working with the promotion after a “disagreement” with a female employee.

Per the Observer, Hardy was terminated by UFC and UK broadcast partner BT Sport after he got into an “argument” with the employee. Hardy, the report stated, remains under contract as a fighter, though he is effectively retired due to a previously disclosed heart condition.
