Greg Hardy showed up 26 pounds overweight for his heavyweight fight against Darko Stosic.

He showed up at 291 pounds, well over the heavyweight limit. Stosic weighed in at 240 pounds and still agreed to take the fight.

The bout will take place on Saturday at a Fight Nation Championship event in Belgrade, Serbia.

The day before weigh-ins, Hardy posted on Instagram, “I made a way for other athletes to come. To combat sports seriously by cutting from 315 every fight no belly an sometimes abs lol can we please return the favor to us giants and make a 285 division ????”

Hardy is 8-5 in his MMA career. He defeated Phillip Latu by unanimous decision in his last bout. Prior to entering the world of MMA, Hardy played in the NFL. In 2014, he was arrested for assault and communicating threats. The prosecutor’s office dropped the charges, citing their inability to locate the victim, and “reliable information” that the two parties had reached a civil settlement
