Dan Hardy Debuts His Version Of "England Belongs To Me" At UFC 111

A long time fan of metal, punk and hardcore, UFC 111 main eventer Dan Hardy will test out his vocal chops when he debuts a version of the Cock Sparrer classic, "England Belongs To Me" with "The Outlaw" providing vocals for the track.

Hardy talked about his choice of songs when appearing on MMAWeekly Radio earlier this week.

"I'm using some traditional British punk again. I'll be using the same song, "England Belongs To Me" by Cock Sparrer, but this is a re-recorded version with me putting the vocals on it, so an interesting one," Hardy said about his UFC 111 entrance song. "It's got a bit more balls than the last one as well."

Growing up as a metal fan in England, Hardy says he started out with the classics and still follows his love of music to this day.

"My favorite band when I was younger was Megadeth," said Hardy. "I just went from them to Pantera, and Slayer, and then I just started getting into hardcore, Earth Crisis and Madball, and I also listen to a lot of the British punk and ska, like Madness and The Clash and bands like that."

The new track with Hardy's vocals will debut at UFC 111 in New Jersey. Check out the original below.

GSP is gonna make an example out of this guy ... you thought Fitch looked bad after 5 rounds? Wait till this fight!

...Ha. Gotta give Hardy an A for personality. As far as him taking GSP's belt, I would bet my ballbag that Georges completely destroys him...

This song is a fucking classic!And if this fight actually has a clear cut winner and ends BEFORE the end of round 5 I'll be surprised.
