UFC on Versus 5 – Dan Hardy sets himself a lofty goal ahead of Chris Lytle showdown, wants to be the first to knock him out

UFC welterweight, Dan Hardy has set himself the lofty goal of becoming the first man ever to knock out veteran, Chris Lytle when the two men meet this Sunday night on the UFC on Versus 5 card in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, something that may or may not prove to be a smart approach to such a crucial fight.
Speaking via Cage Potato, Hardy said:

“I’m always fine with trading punches until someone falls over…I like my odds in that gamble. My goal is to be the first person to knock Chris out. I’m not sure when it will come or how it will come, but I have a lot of options, a lot of techniques that would get him out of there before the final bell.”

“All I know is that the fight will be a war while it lasts, and my hand will be raised at the end.”

The Nottingham boy will have the U.K fans behind him for sure when he faces ‘Lights Out’ next month, but we should hope for Hardy’s sake that he’s also been brushing up on his ground game just in case Lytle decides to mix things up on the mat in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
