During the early portion of Dan Hardy's UFC career, he was considered by some to be just another British brawler.But when last year's UFC Primetime: St-Pierre vs. Hardy series aired footage of the time Hardy spent in Northern China training with Shaolin monks, "The Outlaw" began receiving more respect from the MMA community for being a true mixed martial artist.
On Thursday, Hardy showed just how much respect he has for the history of martial arts when he visited Bruce Lee's grave at Lakeview Cemetery in Seattle, Wash. The visit was so moving, it brought the 28-year-old Hardy on the verge of tears.
"I don't want this to sound disrespectful," Hardy told The Seattle Times, "I kind of treated it as a bit of a sightseeing kind of thing, to come and see Bruce Lee's grave just to say that I've been there and done it. But to be here, I don't know, I kind of got something else from it."
