HIGH STAKES LIGHTWEIGHT MATCHUP! Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to UFC APEX on Sat., Sept. 23, 2023, with a high stakes 155-pound showdown as No. 6-ranked contender, Rafael Fiziev, takes on No. 7-seeded Mateusz Gamrot. In UFC Vegas 79’s co-main event, No. 12-ranked Featherweight contender, Bryce Mitchell, steps back into the Octagon against No. 13-seeded Dan Ige.
Kasanganay came out confident as he tried to close the gap and land some punches inside. Harris was game to exchange and seemed to have a little more pop on his shots. Out of nowhere, Harris caught Kasanganay with a counter combination that wobbled Impa. Harris followed up with a flurry of punches and some vicious ground-and-pound to score the stoppage.

Harris, 34, has now won his last five fights all by way of knockout or submission. The talented fighter from Guyana seems to be a great addition to an already-stacked welterweight division, but he’ll have to tighten up his whole game as he fights his way up the proverbial ladder.
