Greg Hardy dropped Hasim Rahman Jr on his way to a convincing points win on his boxing debut.
The former NFL star and UFC fighter stepped in at short notice to take on professional. boxer Rahman Jr, son of the former heavyweight world champion of the same name. Rahman Jr had been due to take on former UFC star Vitor Belfort but instead faced a 94lb weight discrepancy against Hardy.
It was the smaller man who made the better start, however, as he used his speed to out-box the 320lb Hardy. But the former Dallas Cowboy found his rhythm in the second round to drop Rahman Jr against the ropes. A second knockdown should have been called in the third round when only the ropes kept Rahman Jr on his feet.
