La soumission la plus rapide de l&rsquo;histoire chez les poids mouches f\u00e9minines de l&rsquo;UFC, \u00e0 l&rsquo;\u00e9poque. Pas mal pour une combattante qu&rsquo;on disait en gal\u00e8re apr\u00e8s ses d\u00e9buts dans l&rsquo;organisation.<\/p>\n<h3>De Caracas \u00e0 la Pologne, taekwondo dans les jambes<\/h3>\n<p>N\u00e9e le 30 octobre 1995 \u00e0 Caracas, au Venezuela, Veronica commence le taekwondo \u00e0 quatre ans et d\u00e9croche sa ceinture noire \u00e0 douze. Elle touche ensuite au JJB, au karat\u00e9 et au kickboxing. Quand la situation politique et \u00e9conomique se d\u00e9grade au pays, la famille met le cap sur la Pologne. C&rsquo;est l\u00e0 qu&rsquo;elle bascule vers le MMA, avant de passer professionnelle en 2016, \u00e0 seulement 20 ans.<\/p>\n<h3>Des d\u00e9buts UFC compliqu\u00e9s<\/h3>\n<p>L&rsquo;UFC la recrute jeune. Le 3 septembre 2016, elle perd ses d\u00e9buts contre Ashlee Evans-Smith par TKO. En mai 2018, elle livre un combat acharn\u00e9 face \u00e0 Andrea Lee : d\u00e9cision perdue, mais le bonus Fight of the Night dans la poche. Le d\u00e9clic arrive avec Polyana Viana en 2019, r\u00e9compens\u00e9 par une Performance of the Night. Son probl\u00e8me, sur cette p\u00e9riode, c&rsquo;est la r\u00e9gularit\u00e9 : les d\u00e9cisions ne tournent pas toujours en sa faveur.<\/p>\n<h3>Le rebond apr\u00e8s la retraite<\/h3>\n<p>Veronica \u00e9pouse l&rsquo;ancien aspirant au titre welterweight Dan Hardy le 25 d\u00e9cembre 2022 et prend son nom. Elle revient de retraite le 18 mars 2023 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 286, o\u00f9 elle bat Juliana Miller par d\u00e9cision unanime. Suivent Jamey-Lyn Horth (d\u00e9cision partag\u00e9e, d\u00e9cembre 2023) puis JJ Aldrich (d\u00e9cision unanime, mai 2024). Trois victoires d&rsquo;affil\u00e9e. La s\u00e9rie s&rsquo;arr\u00eate net le 16 novembre 2024 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 309, o\u00f9 Eduarda Moura la domine sur les cartes (30-27, 29-28, 29-28).<\/p>\n<h3>O\u00f9 elle en est<\/h3>\n<p>Le 4 octobre 2025 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 320, elle remet les pendules \u00e0 l&rsquo;heure : victoire nette par d\u00e9cision unanime (30-27 sur les trois cartes) contre Brogan Walker, avec une nette sup\u00e9riorit\u00e9 en striking. Son bilan pro s&rsquo;\u00e9tablit \u00e0 10 victoires, 5 d\u00e9faites et 1 nul. Elle s&rsquo;entra\u00eene d\u00e9sormais \u00e0 la Hardy-Wallhead MMA, \u00e0 New York. Une combattante technique, \u00e0 l&rsquo;aise au sol comme debout, qui sait que sa marge se joue souvent sur les d\u00e9cisions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Veronica_Hardy\">Wikipedia<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/veronica-hardy\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tapology.com\/fightcenter\/fighters\/82229-veronica-macedo\">Tapology<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veronica Hardy, combattante UFC poids mouche n\u00e9e au Venezuela (10-5-1), connue pour sa soumission \u00e9clair de Polyana Viana en 2019.
