Former UFC fighter and ex-NFL star Greg Hardy ended up on the wrong side of a boxing highlight reel again.

At Fight Club REN TV Super Series in Moscow, Russia, Hardy took on Aleksei Papin. The fight was scheduled for six three-minute rounds, but it didn’t last that long.

With about 90 seconds remaining in the third round, Hardy was rocked badly with clean punches, and ultimately sent crashing to the canvas.

Check out video of the highlight moment below:

Since exiting the UFC after [a TKO loss](https://sports.yahoo.com/ufc-free-fight-serghei-spivac-020048344.html) to Serghei Spivac at UFC 272 in March 2022, Hardy has been competing in exhibition and professional boxing bouts. He has picked up [some wins](https://sports.yahoo.com/boxing-video-greg-hardy-drops-033524420.html), but has also been [on the wrong end](https://sports.yahoo.com/video-ex-ufc-heavyweight-greg-040048886.html) of a few [devastating knockouts](https://sports.yahoo.com/video-greg-hardy-knocked-down-151019277.html).

Hardy also tried bareknuckle boxing once, but [was knocked out](https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2023/02/bkfc-knucklemania-3-results-former-nfl-star-ufc-veteran-greg-hardy-flattened-in-bareknuckle-debut) by Josh Watson at BKFC KnuckleMania 3.

Shortly after the fight, Hardy posted a statement on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/DDiMsYbv6Z7/):

I came to Russia Alone on short notice to fight a monster with 18 wins and tested my metal. Got two knock downs and went toe toe. I don’t take easy fights, I don’t fight fake fights I fight real killers and sometimes the price is high but I will pay it to become the best no ? Thank you to everyone that helped me get to this point."

Din Thomas said he had all the tools to be a UFC champion.

He’s definitely going to be slurring his words at this pace. He should retire from fighting asap

I know he at least used to be a scumbag, but his CTE speedrun is just sad at this point. I thought he would be decent in UFC but now he gets Johnny Walker’d in every single fight no matter who his opponent is.

He was so bigger than his opponent. So… what’s with all the UGers that used to say how their NFL supermen would wipe the floor with MMA guys? Or here, boxing?

Hey, I’m a huge NFL, well, Bills fan. But it was just the usual black athlete worshipper on here thinking they are super humans. Well, they sure are amazing gifted, but you can’t shit on guys focusing all their lives in honing theirs kils at fighting!

I just cannot understand why in boxing they allow these “belly protectors”. They cover one of the few places you’re allowed to hit in boxing. So annoying. I get why the boxers are doing it like Hardy here. I just don’t get why it’s allowed!
