He confirmed that he was released by the UFC and is fighting July 12th in Tulsa. He said he hopes to be back in the UFC after a few wins.

It's not really racism though, most of the time it's just subconscious. In the NBA, just about every good young white player is compared to other white players like Larry Bird, Dirk Nowitzki, etc.

But it gets embarrassing sometimes, like people comparing Melvin Guillard to Kevin Randleman. They're completely different fighters, stylistically.

i read a blog saying he was supposed to fight but got injured and had too pull out
i was excited to see him brawl

He is a good fighter he will be back.

I didnt think he really stood out during the show but he seems motivated to work out and become better. I think with the right camp he'll do well in the UFC.

Same thing happens with white basketball players. Bird, Stockton, Mcahle.

if he wanna be a good fighter he should up his game, he got rocked by amir's knee and was lost.

He didn't to me either at first. But when you compare CB vs Amir 1 and 2 to Harris vs Amir, what Harris did becomes quite impressive Imo.

good fighter and great guy, has alot of potential and has performed well in fights against good comp; w/the exception of his fight against radach, he has looked good and been competitive in all his fights.

i know him really good guy fun to talk mma shop about; he really enjoys speaking to fans who know the sport and can express themselves intelligently.

we talked about fights in general and his fights specifically; an he was really cool,.. met him on myspace and corresponded w/him for about a year and a half
