Dan Hardy Thinks Matt Hughes Is Bad For The Sport Of MMA

A new ‘intellectual’ Dan Hardy with sensitive thoughts on important issues. Matt Hughes may be a douche.. but is Hardy actually concerned with Hughes hunting expeditions? I guess he needs to stir things up outside of the octagon occasionally due to his lack of performance inside the cage.

I never pegged Hardy as the intellectual type. He came off as kind of an ass when I first saw him, but I’m glad that he’s changing my opinion.

@ThunderbayMMA: I don’t think he’s just poaching (no pun intended) a controversial topic just because he doesn’t like Hughes very much. It sounds like he’s genuinely concerned about the morality of killing animals for sport, and would have a problem with anyone who took part in it. And he’s won his last 2 fights; he doesn’t need to act big in the public arena and I certainly don’t get the vibe that he’s playing it up to make fans or enemies.

Hunting isn’t bad AT ALL people. However, what Matt Hughes does, going on expeditions just to shoot animals that he cant event keep, is kind of disgusting to me. They call that a “canned hunt” and it’s never something I’ve liked. Hunting deer (or anything for that matter) to feed your family is 100% acceptable. With that being said, I was a big fan of Hughes back in the day, and I’d LOVE it if he came back and smashed Hardy lol.

I have a pretty good sized weiner and I hunt. That means that Krio is a douche bag. And anyone else that does not live in an environment where hunting is essential to survival. Think before you respond. Otherwise I may have an opportunity to express my opinion on things that Krio does like jerking off to internet p*** and then trolling on sites like this. Scumbag!

He’s turned around and became a cool guy.

that hunting expedition fed an entire villiage…

@p***********
Please don’t fall for the trophy-hunting lobby’s propaganda.
Eco-tourism is what feeds these villages. Trophy-hunting is what destroys their economy.

@Krio
Are you serious.I hunted more then 20 times in my life and 70% of the people from my town hunt too.I doubt 20 000 people have small dicks.If it wasn’t for those small weiner hunters,humans wouldn’t even get past the caveman stage.Are you a vegeterian or just a hypocrite douchebag who eats meat wears leather but is against hunting??If we(human race) would’ve been vegeterians and never hunted animals we wouldn’t even survive since gathering only berries grass and roots took more calories then it gave back…So you basically are anti human if you are anti hunting.And guess what you douche,what happens when hunter don’t hunt deer?Overpopulation wich means 3 things,a growth in the population wich means more of them will starve and more of them will cross streets and kill people,then the predator population will rise and finally we’ll have to worry about wolves and mountain lions roaming around our towns…And finally dickwad what do you think happens if we don’t shoot them?Do you think they live peacfully,die old and have many many childrens??No they get eaten alive by predators or die of starvation…

Mad Respect For Dan Hardy.

Interesting.. people coming out of the woood work

Randy Couture, Quinton Jackson, Dan Hardy

in the words of GSP “hardy is no can of tomato soup” I think Dan has a lot of integrity and sincerity in his voice and for that I aplaud him.
Hopefully the good guys of MMA keep utilizing their voice to propell the sport in a better direction. Looks like it’s happening.

cheers. as far as matt hughes. ya few people should ever have to take orders from that guy. seriously.

@TheKungFuLowKick

I don’t even want to respond to your posts as they’re so full of falsities, excessive sensitivity to criticism, and belligerence.

However, in case anyone else cares, prey populations have been proven to slow and stabilize in the absence of hunters as they reproduce more quickly when hunted. Additionally, if there are wolves and cougars, the natural predators of deer, in the areas we’re talking about as KungFuLowKick aptly volunteers to his argument, his “fixing population” argument makes even less sense from the get-go since those predators won’t even allow such overpopulation to begin with.
Besides all that though, Dan Hardy did get on this topic due to the trophy-hunting of exotics in Africa, not deer in his backyard, so not sure why we’re so off topic anyway.
Lastly, many early societies were vegetarian and much larger animals than ourselves thrive on purely vegetarian diets so the vegetables don’t give enough calories to survive argument is particularly fool-hardy. Hanging around a field of plants rather than tussling with a potentially dangerous animal isn’t such a bad idea.
All that being said, notice that Dan Hardy was condemning people who kill for fun, not subsistence hunters. Really not such a radical message here.

This topic awakens hypocrites on both sides. But seriously, the “white men with guns” bit is hilariously oafish and is a position commonly held by an ever-shrinking group who, in their vernacular, would dismiss the contributions to the formation of this country by the “chinamen”, “negros”, and “spics”…etc. A more subtle version of this world view is the belief that if it weren’t for us great white men and our guns, those poor dirty brown villagers in those far distant lands wouldn’t eat. Therefore, we must travel and kill that exotic game and take pictures to tell our buddies back home what we’ve bagged and discarded. LOL.

That said, everyone who eats meat should experience killing a chicken at least. It lends perspective. We are animals.

@TheKungFuLowKick

Man BEFORE we had to HUNT to survive BUT not ANYMORE, I want to hunt stupid humans like you but I can’t because I will go in jail so is that fair? no because I have to survive I need to kill stupid people

Dan hardy is a smart good hearted guy.Some of the stuff he says i say the exact same thing all the time.Dan seeks the truth.To everyone defending hunting and getting pissed off at hardy why not listen to what he actually said.He said if you find fun in killing animals you are a sociopath.You hunt to feed your family not for fun period,now if you find the tracking and everything that comes before the hunt fun thats cool.You should be like the Indians and honor/show respect for what ever you killed for food.Smiling is morbid after a hunt.

@Oscar- Tell us all what is worse, Matt Hughes or gigantic meat farms used to produce food for fat morons like yourself? /watch?v=VLbV9ZDffWo

Better start thinking for yourself and stop watching the TV because it’s making you stupid. And yes I know you love the TV because you regurgitate their play by play brilliantly. Also you only responded to my white man remark and decided to leave out the much more important points I raised.

Its ok to go to a foreign country and blow the crap out of a bunch of kids and woman for oil but shoot a animal for a trophy and your a asshole.

The responses to Oscar and anyone pointing out what Hardy’s argument actually is, is like Nigel saying, “These go to 11″ http://www. youtube.com/watch?v=EbVKWCpNFhY

The responses where people are asking, “what’s worse, killing babies or trophy hunting”? is straw man and tu quoque. Stay on point and grow…stop being so afraid and angry

Everyone just STFU I win…..

If you have something against hunting you had better not ever eat meat, or an animal product or bi-product. Never use anything that has been made from animal skin, bones, or any other part. Good luck with that hypocrites. I would like to see Matt Hughes end the feud by taking Hardy on a hunting trip to show him what it is all about. Then pull a Dick Cheney.

@wcoastassassin

Who said all of us do?

can’t stand Matt hughes! he is a two faced. he is especially annoying when talking about religion crap.

People on this site are f****** stupid. I don’t care if people hunt unless it’s the last of some endangered species. I also don’t live in a place where hunting is essential for survival, so you other dickwads can F*** off too if you got a problem with that. Why can’t people just mind their own f****** business, and what the F*** does this have to do with MMA?

@thekungfulowkick
I think you mean dumber “than” before. Oh the irony…

Hunting is very healthy for a human to do so, as long as your eating the animal it’s much better than going to a grocery store and buying food that you’re not even connected to.
