Overview

Dan Hardy | Full Reptile is the YouTube channel of Dan Hardy, a former British UFC title challenger turned analyst. It was created in February 2019 and had about 183,000 subscribers as of September 2026.

The channel is independent and covers the UFC, ONE, Glory, the PFL and boxing. It is built around several recurring, numbered shows, which makes it easy to find a specific fight.

What you'll find

The War Room is the flagship show: a detailed breakdown of one major fight. It has passed 316 episodes, the latest covering Khamzat Chimaev versus Sean Strickland in March 2026. Earlier episodes tackled Merab Dvalishvili versus Sean O'Malley 2, Islam Makhachev versus Arman Tsarukyan and Dricus Du Plessis versus Israel Adesanya.

The Outlawed Picks Podcast, co-hosted with Veronica, covers UFC pay-per-view picks and has passed 87 episodes, including Max Holloway versus Charles Oliveira 2 at UFC 326 and Alexander Volkanovski versus Diego Lopes 2 at UFC 325. The channel also runs live shows, Mid-Week Live and Aftermath, plus one-off formats like "Fight Tactics" on Usman Nurmagomedov versus Paul Hughes 2 and a video on the "Scottish Twister," one of MMA's newest submissions.

Why follow

Dan Hardy fought for a UFC title and spent years calling fights, so his breakdowns connect what you see on screen to what it feels like inside the cage. The War Room walks through both fighters' tactical choices, round by round, and what swung the result.

Uploads slowed down in 2025 and 2026 and now center on the biggest matchups. Each video is a deep dive rather than a quick reaction, which is why the episodes hold up long after the fight.

MMA Official's take

This channel is for fans who want to understand the strategy behind a major fight and for people training who value the perspective of a former elite fighter. Episodes take time and are best watched after you've seen the fight in question.

Start with a War Room episode on a fight you've already watched, such as Islam Makhachev versus Arman Tsarukyan, then listen to The Outlawed Picks Podcast before the next pay-per-view to see how Dan Hardy and Veronica build their picks.
