"As a fighter you have to be more active, man," Harris exclaimed during this week's UFC Vegas 101 media day, clearly frustrated by his lack of activity. "There's bills to pay, so one fight a year, it's not good." This sentiment underscores the economic pressures fighters face and the importance of regular competition for their livelihoods.
Unlike would-be opponents, Harris had no problem saying yes to a high-profile scrap with Santiago Ponzinibbio. "I've never refused a fight, so for me, it's just another working day. It don't matter who they offer me, if I'm not injured I will always accept a challenge. Any challenge." This reflects his commitment and readiness to face tough competition.
"I'm excited to fight Santiago. It's a big name, he's a veteran of the game, experienced fighter," Harris added. "It's a good name." This highlights his respect for opponents and the significance of fighting seasoned veterans in the UFC.
"You have to give the fans what they want to see. Santiago, he has a very aggressive style like myself. It's a good match-up for the fans." This expresses his understanding of fan expectations and willingness to deliver exciting fights.
