Former NFL defensive end and current UFC heavyweight Greg Hardy is on board with Dana White's plan for Fight Island.

Hardy told TMZ Sports that not only is he interested in fighting on the island, he'll also move there.

"I'm saying it right now Dana, man, listen, if you got (living) quarters - I ain't asked him about it - if you got quarters, I'll stay on the island, bro," Hardy said. "You guys know, I'm not ashamed to move in. We can fight every couple of weeks, dude ... with all seriousness. Let's run it."

The location of the private island has yet to be revealed, but White said Friday it will have training facilities, hotels, and an Octagon on the beach. He expects the island to be operational by June.

Hardy's next scheduled fight is against Yorgan De Castro at UFC 249 in Jacksonville on May 9.
