McGregor could bum Dana’s dog in front of the whole White family during Sunday dinner and Dana would ignore it and still be saying ‘We’ve gotta get both sides of the story...oh, Scooby hasn’t said anything. Good enough for me’.

Exactly my point. It's easy for Plastic Caesar to talk about a zero-tolerance approach when it's not tested by people who make him lots of money.

McGregor's got only just enough about him not to try it (barely). Only other person I can think of who's enough of a loose cannon to do something like that is the other Hardy, and he's not a big enough name for White not to apply the rule.
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted March 13, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 13, 2021 seems Hardy is in demand:
Paid Members Carbomb Posted March 13, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 13, 2021 The obvious answer would be Bellator, but I can't help think they could be a bit "over-signed" right now. I think One or PFL would be a better bet.
Guy Bifkin Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 There's always wanking for pennies to fall back on.

Hes gonna be an asset to whoever he signs for.

I don't ever find myself saying "damn, I wish Dan Hardy was commentating tonight!" or "Wow, what about that dream fight I want to see with Dan Hardy fighting so-and-so." He's a dude who enjoyed a 6-4 UFC run almost ten years ago. I won't miss him. In fact, if I hadn't been told he'd been sacked I'd likely have never asked about him again.

If Bellator brought him in and he gave Bellator's fights the same kind of coverage he currently gives the UFC its surely gonna be a beneficial for them. Bellator is also on Showtime now which surely will ramp up pre/post shows and panel work, Hardy is perfect for that.
David Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Unless Showtime have their own ideas regarding presenters and so on. They may not want Hardy.
