Gerald Harris

Dont know if I spelled his name right.


I honestly thought he was gonna win the whole thing he avoided submissions from Amir there entire fight, which Dolloway couldn't do.

His stand up is baaad very bad though, those knees where coming from a mile away and he ate every one, right after the first one landed everyone knew it was just a matter of time on the feet.

Give this kid some stand-up skills, experiance and I say we have a mini Rampage.

I think Gerald is a great overall fighter- His stand up is good too, he just got caught once from Amir and it ended his UFC hopes

I was kind of bummed he didnt get invited to the TUF7 finale, he looked good on the show. He probably pushed Amir the same as anyone else on the show did, he had some good ground skills.

I love how everytime there is a young black fighter they compare him to Randleman or Rampage.

The fact Rampage said he is a "mini me" and he loves to slam and is a wrestler, would make him very compareable to both Rampage and randleman who has won fights by slams and wrestling..

I didn't like him he is really just another strong wrestler like jesse taylor or cb or even paul bradley so not sure what all the hype is about

He was a better fighter then Dante "BJJ Expert" Rivera who shouldn't have been on the finale.

Gerald Harris has huge potential! He's the MW version of Gray Maynard, with superior cardio

I think he was hurt. He was on crutches in a few episodes of TUF. He was at the finale and moved to AZ to train w CB. I think he will get a UFC shot sometime soon.
