Greg Hardy has a date, location, and opponent for his next fight.
The UFC has booked Hardy (6-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) against Marcin Tybura for Dec. 19 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, the promotion announced during the UFC 255 pay-per-view broadcast on Saturday.
A former NFL player, Hardy transitioned to MMA in 2017. Three amateur fights later, Hardy turned professional. Three pro wins, including two finishes on Dana White’s Contender Series, punched Hardy’s ticket into the UFC.
Since joining the UFC roster, Hardy has picked up wins over Dmitry Smolyakov, Juan Adams, Yorgan De Castro, and most recently, Maurice Greene on Oct. 31. Hardy rides a two-fight winning streak into his Dec. 19 matchup.
Tybura (20-6 MMA, 7-5 UFC) also rides a recent wave of success in the form of three consecutive victories over Serghei Spivak, Maxim Grishin, and Ben Rothwell. All three wins were by unanimous decision.
