Actually... I was pretty disappointed to see Harris get beat. I had high hopes for him and rrrrreally thought he was gonna be in the finale. I felt bad for him after the fight... cause he has so much skill and potential and it just didn't come together for him in that fight.

But I have no doubt dude will be fighting at the finale... His slams were BRUTAL! He frickin' powerslamed AMIR like a WWE match or something... TWICE. Dana was impressed as you could tell with the postfight talks.

Anyways... props to Amir... and can't wait to see Harris fighting again.

The fight was decent. Not great but fairly entertaining. The knee was good, and it looked like he was scared of the dudes knees when he got tagged previously.

What disappointed me was his reaction after the fight. I know loosing can be devestating, but to throw a fit like that is cery unprofessional. I can understand being emotionally tied up, and needing an outlet. Prehaps next time the ref tells you to improve you will. I mean come on he said he was awake the whole time, but didn't follow the instructions.

Bam flare up. If you had that much energy left then he should have used it in the fight instead of getting mad.

I hate fighters, who don't even try to strike and instead try to shoot/ clinch against the cage as soon as the fight is standing.

So I was really happy, when he ate the knee.

The UFC needs more gnp wrestlers about as much as Burma needs another cyclone.

I could understand it in that fight he respected Amir's stand-up and it looks like for good reason.

Its good to come in here and listen to a lot of opinions because at work we all came in the next morning saying the same thing about the fight.

Harris with some good slams held Amir down and constantly only looked for a take down with Zero set up of any stand up.

And that is not what many people want to see in a fight!!

His knee was awesome and that semi-flying, we'll call it a gliding knee, that missed would have been friggin awesome.

Amir showed heart, determination and skill.

I hope that dude wins.
