Juan Adams slates ‘delusional’ Greg Hardy for calling himself the fighting version of Michael Jordan

It was revealed earlier this week that Greg Hardy’s next UFC opponent would be Juan Adams, and already Adams has taken aim at Hardy’s comments in which he compared himself to basketball legend Michael Jordan.

After being disqualified against Allen Crowder in his UFC debut for an illegal knee, Hardy (4-1) picked up his first win for the promotion last month by defeating Dmitry Smolyakov by first-round TKO. Hardy then went on to say he is the “fights sports’ athlete version of what Michael Jordan could be.”

Speaking recently to Luke Thomas, Adams slated Hardy for the opponents he has faced so far in both his amateur and professional MMA career.
