Former NFL Defensive End Greg Hardy Gets Knocked Out Again in Boxing Match

Former NFL defensive end Greg Hardy suffered a brutal knockout in his latest boxing match, adding to a string of losses in combat sports. Hardy, who transitioned to combat sports after leaving the NFL in 2016, faced Patrick Mailata in a Texas Combat League bout. Mailata delivered a devastating KO to Hardy, who has previously been stopped in MMA bouts as well.

Despite a promising start in MMA, including a 3-0 amateur record and a 3-0 professional start, Hardy’s career took a downturn with three straight knockout losses in the UFC. He also suffered a knockout defeat in a bare-knuckle boxing match earlier this year. This latest setback for Hardy raises questions about his future in combat sports.

Hardy’s career has been marked by controversy, including a domestic violence incident during his NFL tenure. Despite his struggles in the combat sports world, Hardy continues to compete and face new challenges in the ring. Only time will tell if he can bounce back from this latest defeat.
