Dan Hardy

I want to feel like I can throw everything at my opponent.

And I also want to feel safe that they can throw everything at me, right?

I don't want to have in my mind, oh, hang on, do I need to pull this punch because the referee's not going to jump in?

Like, there are three people in there, and one person's got the job to protect both of us.

Neither of us have a responsibility to protect each other.

We don't have a responsibility to pull a punch after a knockdown.

We don't have a responsibility to stop when the bell rings, right?

It might have been.

It might have been.

Herb's refereed me a bunch of times, and I like Herb.

But that, obviously, was Anderson's beef.

And look at the time.

We're into the last 20 seconds.

Right.

And it's a beautiful knee that Anderson lands as well.

There's the mouthpiece.

One of my favorite fights to have called.

Oh, for sure it was.

For sure it was.

And unfortunately for Anderson, he had the adrenaline dump of thinking he'd won the fight, got up on the cage, started celebrating, and then had another 10 minutes.
