Thread: Dan Hardy vs. Mike Swick @ UFC 105

I like this match-up, should be a good one. Swick will go in as the favourite but it would be huge for Hardy if he could pull out the win. I agree he still could do a with a few more fights before taking on GSP. If he wins convincingly I'm not sure he'll get that luxury though as the hype machine will kick into overdrive.

Hardy to beat swick...but if it is for no1 spot... GSP is a class above Dan at the minute. dans a fantastic fighter... but he'd have to step it up big time!

Swick is a very good technical fighter & possibly even underrated (from a serious title contentender point of view), however after reading Hardy's recent internet blog battle I'd love to see him win with a haymaker KO like he got against Markham!

I think it will get his name up there, but to be honest, no one at WW is at GSP standard .. and I dont think GSP is at peak yet , I think Jake Shields would be the best bet to beat GSP if he came to the ufc
