  • This is Hardy’s second major run-in with the law following his 2014 arrest for allegedly assaulting his then-girlfriend.
  • He amassed 40 career sacks and earned a Pro Bowl selection with the Carolina Panthers in 2013.
  • After leaving the NFL in 2015 Hardy compiled seven UFC victories, six by knockout, before moving into bare-knuckle fighting and earned over $1.2 million in MMA payouts.
