Josh Watson and Greg Hardy Jr

Greg Hardy’s and Josh Watson’s recent encounter as opponents is a very interesting topic because the first appearance of Hardy in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship did not go as he planned with Watson’s exceptional styles. He knocked out the former Pro Bowl defensive end early in the second round of their fight on Friday night.

Hardy was a massive favorite heading, in a main card heavyweight bout, into his fight with Watson. For the former Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter and NFL defensive player, things went south when he was dropped late during the first round. Finally he finished in the second round.

however, Watson had a nasty cut over his eye and blood pouring down his face just after his knockdown in the first round. Then, Hardy was essentially saved by the bell. Before the second round was announced, referee Dan Miragliotta and commission doctors appeared to look at the cut.
