Dan Hardy says he’s developing new skills to come back and fight Georges St. Pierre again in the future
By Zach Arnold | May 8, 2010
You had a couple of close moments in your fight against GSP. What did you learn from that fight?
“I learned that my wrestling sucks and that I’m too stubborn for my own good. You know, it was a tough fight, it was a frustrating fight. I went in there with a game plan and it wasn’t the right one, you know, GSP’s a great wrestler and my wrestling is not up to standards to beat him right now, so I’ve got work to do.”
Bas Rutten: “It’s a European problem. It’s a Dutch problem. It’s a European problem in general. It was my problem, too.”
Dan Hardy: “You know, I’m out in the US now, I’m working on my wrestling hard and you know I’ll be ready when the time comes again. But you know, looking back on it now, I can see what I need to work on, I can see you know what I need to improve on in order to get back to a title shot and win it. And you know, having been in there with GSP and I’ve seen what he’s got to offer, I’ve seen you know what he wants to do in a fight and what he wants to avoid and I’m confident you know in the future I can beat. I’ve got work to do but I’ll get there and I’ll do it.”
“That’s the best thing about MMA, that’s the difference between MMA and boxing, you know, nobody’s protected in MMA.”
“I’ve just taken a loss and I’ll be back on track and that’s just the way it goes in this sport, you’re up and down, but it’s the dedication that is the difference.”

“You had a close fight against GSP.”
Wait, what?
Ed. — I edited the record to be more accurate. Kenny Rice said to him in his first question that he met Dan Hardy 30 mins before questioning and then buttered him up by saying that he had some close moments in his fight against St. Pierre. Thought I would clear that up. Thanks.
I read what you wrote twice Zach, but I do not understand. What did you mean? Did he talk to him before the interview? Either I am missing something, but from what I remember, St. Pierre blew him out of the water for five rounds straight.
How can rogers talk any smack about Fedor?
He was KO’d in the 2nd, shit talking is not a good look on him.
Does anyone here now of a good cream or salve of some sort that can clear up irritated skin and/or warts around the mouth and/or rectum? Long story short, Trembow most definitely lied to me about something. Anyone with recommendations, thanks. Time is of the essence.
