Dan Hardy lost for a fourth consecutive time at UFC on Versus 5, this time to Chris Lytle by way of guillotine choke late in the third round. Speculations set in immediately after the fight that Hardy would be cut. Most thought with the dreaded three strikes and your out rule Hardy had no shot of sticking around and would have to find his home elsewhere, possibly Strikeforce or even UK’s own BAMMA.
Not too long after the event had finished UFC owner Lorenzo Fertitta hopped aboard his twitter machine and had this to say…With the looks of things, Hardy will indeed keep his job with the UFC and will be one of few to keep a job after going 0-4 in his last four fights. Look for “The Outlaw” to take some time off and then come back with a bang.
