Heavyweights collide!
Former NFL player Greg Hardy tackles Aussie slugger Tai Tuivasa at UFC 264. The two men look to be recognized in the division’s elite with a big win in Las Vegas.
Round 1:
Hardy points to the ground, letting Tuivasa he’s in for a ride. Tuivasa starts chopping the legs of Hardy. The action had just begun when the two fighters swing for the fences. Tuivasa was left staggered at one of Hardy’s blows. Hardy went for the kill but much to his dismay, Tuivasa recovered fast enough and unleashed devastating hooks to knock Hardy out cold on the canvas.
Tuivasa celebrates on the top of the cage doing a shooey (drinking a beer out of a shoe).
Official result: Tai Tuivasa def. Greg Hardy via first-round TKO (1:07)
