UFC Heavyweights: Maurice Greene vs Greg Hardy

‘The Crochet Boss’ is coming off a scintillating arm-triangle submission win that he pulled off whilst being mounted. Gian Villante didn’t know what hit him when Greene pulled off the slick submission to crack his two-fight skid. Although a win over Hardy doesn’t bring him directly up the ranks, it certainly moves him in the right direction.

Greene utilizes sluggish movement effectively to bait his opponents into a false sense of security. The 9-5 fighter is able to walk down his opponents with reckless abandonment as he’s not afraid of being taken down. Chiefly, Hardy’s subpar performances on the canvas will be an encouraging factor for Maurice.

The 6-2 fighter in Greg Hardy has begun coming into his own as a fighter, and his recent win over Yorgan De Castro testifies to that. After falling short to Alexander Volkov on the judges’ cards, ‘The Prince of War has reinvented himself. With just under two years into his UFC run, he’s already on his seventh fight and has looked increasingly impressive.
