Harris cut from UFC

[clovett]

apparently for staring....

Just read he was cut too, that sucks.

What a fickle company where one bad fight can cost a pretty big prospect his job.

“I’ll tell you right now in all honestly, with the way the UFC has the roster so thick, I’m truly blessed not to be in trouble after that (fight),” he said. "I’m just happy that I left that arena, I learned something, and I have another chance to prove myself. Hopefully, I did that in my last three fights."

The UFC is trying to send a message about wanting fighters to fight, but it's the wrong person to cut if that's what they were trying to do. Gerald Harris had two KOTN performances before getting mauled by Falcao. Harris - someone who probably wasn't going to be contender - was probably going to get squeezed out eventually with the addition of the BWs and FWs, so I guess they pulled the trigger on him now under the guise of sending a message.

Wake me when they really want to send a message about fighters not fighting and cut someone like Fitch, Maynard or Lentz.

They cannot cut guys who win. First fight Lentz loses, his ass is grass.
