Dan Hardy says Matt Hughes hunts to cure his impotence
by Hubert Lau on January 05, 2012

Dan Hardy throws verbal jabs at Matt Hughes as the Brit criticizes Hughes for his hunting according to their twitter accounts.

Hughes has been getting some backlash recently for a picture he posted of two bobcats and deer he hunted with his twin brother Mark Hughes.

"Me and my brother love to shoot cats! If you don't like seeing dead animals please stop following me. I'm not even going to try and educate you PETA idiots," Hughes said on his twitter account addressing his critics.

The pictures also sparked a response from Hardy who has openly admitted his dislike for Hughes numerous times in the past.

"'Look at what I killed. Aren't I the man? This is the only thing I have found that cures my impotence'," Hardy said on his twitter account.

"There is no justification for what he does...Shooting a wild cat for fun is a joke...I fight against other people that enjoy fighting also. Shooting animals for fun isn't sport and it certainly isn't cool," Hardy continued.

Hardy is no stranger to trash talking and his most recent rendition might be an attempt to bait Hughes into a fight with him. Hardy has already put Hughes' name up to Lorenzo Fertitta, CEO of Zuffa, as the person he wants to fight next.

"I don't have a problem for hunting if there is a purpose for it. I have never read about anywhere being overran by bobcats though," Hardy said.

Hardy has been on a slump ever since challenging George St. Pierre for his welterweight title at UFC 111, losing via unanimous decision. Hardy would drop his next three bouts as well, last losing to Chris Lytle via guillotine choke in the third round at UFC Live: Hardy vs. Lytle.

Hughes hasn't fared much better, losing his last two fights to BJ Penn and Josh Koscheck via KO. Hardy is in a dire need of a win to remain in the UFC and reestablish himself at welterweight, believing a fight with Hughes is the rebound he needs.

 |  (41) Comments nygiant: I hunt boar...but they are very overpopulated and killing a TON of farmer's crops and what not...not to mention they are very dangerous. Anyway...I was fittin to say y'all but then he said "if there is a purpose" SicJits: Hardy should close his mouth and start training to become a well rounded mixed martial artists. Really calling out an over the hill MH is kinda weak sauce after the performances Hardy has shown me. And if you hunt according to the law, you don't need to explain yourself as to why you do it. And if your going to put out videos of you in a singlet "pretending" to be training wrestling, please show some improvement. Cause if not you look like a tool for making fun of it only to get beat by someone with decent wrestling skills.....or a guy you begged for a stand up war with only to take the guy down at the end cause you were getting whooped in the stand up, and got sub'd still!!!!! arlovskiviako: shit is funny shawnb: if you hunt for food, or like nyg said, an overpopulated animal, i've got no issue if you hunt rare animals, or just hunt to for the joy of killing something, that doesn't sit as well with me HappyHamer: I'm with Shaun. Hunting borne of necessity or the need to survive is understandable and acceptable. Hunting for twitter pics, not so much. Although it is hard not to think that the hunting issue is a very handy cause for Dan Hardy to ride the coattails of as he chases a fight with a name that he thinks is winnable. SicJits: and i don't see much of a difference in what Hardys done compared to what Rivera did( to temp) calling a man impotent and having a small pee pee, but it's Hardy so it will be explained away as acceptable:rolleyes: GO HARD: bottom line is... before people were calling out Wandy, NOW people are calling out Hughes... soon it will be the next legend that is on the downslide of their career. Hardy really needs to just shut up... and fight somebody on the undercard. and im not a Hughes fan... im not a fan of hunting... but whatever. Lady Dragon 420: If you really want to be gross and eat other animals then i guess so... Lady Dragon 420: If i ever seen a bear i would shoot it in the head lbvs those things are evil or mountain lion lol both which are in Cali. GO HARD: If someone is going to hunt... they should educate themselves on what animals to kill... q: l dont shoot the baby deer. q; ( JujitsWho: You know, I've heard the back and forth on hunting for years. Both sides have decent arguements. Now whether or not you agree with hunting, it does serve a legitimate purpose and has a positive effect on the surrounding habitat. I'm many areas where hunting is popular, deer are overpopulate and a nuisance to the farming community. The people in charge at the fish and wildlife services monitor and help to control deer populations. This is done by means of determaining the current population levels, and then taking that number and finding the appropriate number of deer that can be harvested by hunters. So, while you may have issues with the act of hunting, it does help in many ways. snuff: All in all, I think we can all agree that hunting is essential to the way of life. It was needed back when people still had unibrows and it is still needed now. Lady Dragon 420: i think its best to just hunt people they are more deserving of there fates. JujitsWho: Ok, if this can't be dropped, ill do it for you. JujitsWho: Thread is reopened. Keep all comments clean and respectful in the news section. JujitsWho: Maybe this thread should be closed again. Lmao GO HARD: i think i had a really good post that got cleared out of here... conspiracy?
