Good to see him land such a great opportunity. He put in work over the years and has earned it.
best mma breakdowns on yt
@@astralseeker no
So happy for Dan Hardy. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Dan and Veronica sound like soulmates...beautiful stuff :)
One of the best analysts in the sport.
Lies! Dude predictions be way off
@@atheist6997his breakdowns of fighters are pretty good but yeah his predictions never hit😂
@@atheist6997 Booohooo! Boohoo! Sounds like you listened to his predictions, bet some money and lost your coins......don't be all butthurt and salty......make your own picks then blame yourself for your loss......
@@atheist6997 His analysis is good, he never says bet on his picks 😂
@@shadow_realm47not how mma math works
Always loved Dan, such a great guy. Happy for him
Dan is his usual cool, unreal self! Top man & best of luck in your new role. The PFL struck gold there 🏴☠️👊🏽🔥👊🏽🏴☠️
Even the UK fans in o2 neglected Leon. Let’s not forget they boo’ed him in 2019 because they liked Till.
Now they cheer acting like Leon forgot, fluckin bandwagoners
And when people spoke about who would be the next UK champion none of them that I remember mentioned Leon.
@@pilot8220and you’re acting like everyone who boo’d will be at the arena tomorrow? It’s obviously under like 50 people who’ll fall into the category you’re talking about
they were scousers
Happy for this man, hope he'll do well on this new position
Well I'll be watching pfl whenever I can now
Dan deserves everything thats coming his way
Lmfao.
Dan the Man. One of the best minds in the game (not to mention submission escape artist).
Congrats Dan!!
CONGRATULATIONS DAN. SO HAPPY FOR YOU.
Great appointment for the PFL, congratulations Dan.
Best analysis in the game
I'm happy for leon
Good pickup for PFL Dan hardy is a great asset to the sport
Yes!!! Dan Hardy. With Ariel.
I'm glad that someone besides me is saying this
Met him in manchester once lovely lad brilliant analysts well done dan
Congrats Dan 🎉
Love how Areils consistently had Leons back since start, plus he rolls with the Mighty Reds.
Big ups to the OG fans!!!
makes a UFC fight night more exciting and in depth when Dan Hardy was calling it, hope he lands a new commentary gig soon
Rooting for his wife's Victory
Veronica's fighter nickname is now "The In-law".
What we missed was everything
PFL is making good moves
Dan is the man.
Veronica did phenomenal.
Always good to see the outlaw.
Two top humble men.
Mat danzic won the ultimate fighter 6 in the lightweight or welterweight division. Watching his fights compared to how well rounded fighters are today an at a young age its crazy how far the sport has come.
Bout time Dan was working on the inside again.....can't let his huge experience go to waste......
delivers the best breakdowns in the business.deserves big production. disapointing he's out of the ufc comentators roaster
“STAHP THE FIGHT”
Dan is the Man. UFC lost valuable and insightful employee. But congrats for PFL for hiring Dan. Ps. I don't know why KSW wasn't mentioned in conversation about european MMA. Unfortunate oversight.
Outlaw!!!!!!!!!
Dan Hardy has snatched what is rightfully MMA Guru's gig
Wait I know you! You're that kiddy didler everyone's been talking about!
@@jamesrobertson2987 Yeah good comment mate👍
@@psilocyborg4775 you won't get away with what you did to that poor little boy. Gurnard's family deserve justice!
@@jamesrobertson2987 You just watch me James,you just watch me.
Dan's right. Without the coach's talk. Leon wouldn't be able to pull that off.
Leon still has Usman's arm photoshopped on him for his official photo 7 months later. Still running it on all their promos even 3 days out. So disrespectful.
Just went to have a look, that is rude beyond belief! 😂
Wow that is nuts.
come on that shit's hilarious i'd be so sad if they changed it
I don’t get what you’re talking about?
@@Borgborg128 They photoshopped Usman's arm and belt onto Leon's body in his UFC photo.
Everything happens for a reason Dan
The comment section truly consists of The life’s of no one’s and no one cares about … only as interesting as what comes out of their arse oles… 😂😂…. Dan brilliant analyst… been their as a fighter got into the ufc… incredible achievement…. 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🏴
Well said bro. Why do people try to criticize so much when they wouldn't stand a chance against the people they talk s*it about. It sucks. Ive always been a big fan of the outlaw, Rocky and bisping but there's always a know it all trying to speak bad of them from the sofa at home.
Shane Carwin is the answer!!!
I think it’s Stefan Struve (a fellow European)
I don’t know anyone with Dazn (I’m in the UK)
Good for him. He's gonna do great. Just don't try to stop fights from the booth.. Bahahahaha
Hello. UFC 263. Edwards was boooed out of the same arena
Stop the fight!!!!!
Frankly, I'm not interested unless the cage is a dodecahedron.
Sean mcCorkal?
Ian freeman then
UFC'S LOSS IS PFL'S GAIN
Flat Out !
Flat earth!
I swear to god I typed that before I even noticed your username
Who's his wife ?
Vanessa Macedo
Hardy is a ggg
Leon was protected.... lmao just like all the British "stars" he fought 2 career lightweights then sat out for 2 years and earned a title shot beating another career lightweight with a 500 record.
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Dan Hardy and Ariel… two bias ex UFC employees 😂
HAHAHA DAN WEARS A TOUPEE! 🤣
Weird how I've become a big fan of his analysis out of the UFC after he left. I didn't like his show in the UFC. From what I saw, it was too dumbdowned.
Frank mir
Stefan Struve, bet that.
When 2 ex girlfriends get together
Dan: "He went and took the belt off Usman conclusively and concussively!" Great line!
Stefan Struve?
For sure.
First
I hate the way Dan Hardy says 'oppor-TUNATEE' Sell out🤮
The poor fuzzy foreigners are unhappy that they don't get attention, lol give me a break
It's Werdum right?
The secret commentator? It's either Stefan Stuve or Jimi Manuwa for sure. Struve is my bet.
Edwards has been neglected because he's not the one. Usman will destroy hail Mary Edwards. Still love Hardy
Two of the most disgruntled haters of the UFC
Mma guru had a affair with hardy wife
Leon has no charisma. This is not complicated. UFC is a business, duh
Dan was fired from the ufc because of sexual harassment allegations. Why weren't no questions asked about that?
I like Dan but cornering your wife is a horrible idea, plus he's the head coach this is just disaster waiting to happen
I have a daughter her age I wouldn't be too happy if she married a 40 year old guy.
Just be happy for them. It's a good thing.
@Adam Walker Well now he has a daughter and a wife, I'm sure everyone will be happy for them..
neglected? Beat zero ppl in the top 5 before Usman and lucky he won that fight.
Youre full of BS. Nobody in the so called top 5 wanted to fight Leon, and he doesnt make matches, so he did his job, beat everyone they gave, earned his shot, and knocked Usman the hell out with pure skill, not luck, cry harder
Because he was never given an opportunity he was on a 7 fight win streak
@@thomaskendell8146 he beat rda who was number 3 and didn’t get a title shot
Dan hardy is literally a salty ex. Always negative against the UFC, definitely deserved to be fired. The UFC deserves plenty of criticism to be fair.
That's harsh. It was a bit shady how UFC treated Dan so maybe he's a little bitter. Who knows?
Two bitter guys who despise the company that made them who they are. Sad.
Dan got totally screwed by the UFC, they didn't even have the bollocks to speak to him when they let him go, that should tell you everything you need to know about the ethics of the people who work there. Dan also fought most of his fights for under 25 grand so he got exploited like most fighters of that era, the commentary job paid ok but they are literally printing money so they weren't doing any flavours there either. Dan made himself, not the UFC! 🙄
Would u be happy with the UFC if u were in the same situation? It was dirty how they treated Dan so can u really blame him
UFC is so much better without Dan hardy
Not sure how any company can hire Dan Hardy after the xenophobic and homophobic nonsense he directed against Marcus Davies.
What did he even say? Plus that fight was 14 years ago man. You've probably said some things you regret.
@@jake7763 I definitely have. I will not repeat what he said here as I don’t want to risk the status of my account. But you are obviously free to search for it yourself.
Leon Edward scissorhands was almost in tears before the last rd because he knew he got dominated. Now he talks like he’s some great champion. Nate pillow fists diaz almost KO this chump. 🤡
He won bro … who cares he got the strap Nate and Usman don’t
Ya never know. I’m a fan of Marty and Leon. I wanna see a good fight. That knockout surely remains large in his mind. Let’s go.
He didnt get dominated, he knocked Usman the hell out, and he is a great champion, cry harrder
Why does this guy get platformed? He was a terrible fighter as it is
he's a good broadcaster though.
@@burlhorse61 and analyst
@@burlhorse61 he was good, towards the end he was annoying and had an inflated ego. now hes just a bitter old guy who whines and complains
@@dritern yeah 40 years old Is ancient 😆
Hahahee! Says the guy that's never had a fight, never had his hands wrapped, wore a pair of gloves or stepped inside a cage....
I don’t think he was neglected . I think anyone in the ufc who doesn’t promote themselves or put asses in seats is gonna have a much tougher road
This guy said his wife is championship material 🤣 wtf 1-4in UFC is championship material...she shouldn't even be in the UFC...
Frank mir
It's Ian freeman or stefen streuve
@@josephmills-mw2hs It's definitely Struve.
