My Letter to the Nevada State Athletic Commission

Hello, my name is Gerald Harris and I will be competing in the Mixed Martial Arts event World Series of Fighting. This event takes place next Saturday November 3rd and I'm glad to be a part it. I am sending this letter to request that my opponent and I are to be drug/PED tested for every bout that I compete in Nevada.
I will make this request in every state that I compete in, but my future is with WSOF and they are based in your state. I have competed in Las Vegas, NV in the past and had a great time. I actually enjoy being tested because, I and many other athletes live a clean, healthy, drug free lifestyle.
The recent increase in Mixed Martial Arts failed drug test has led many trainers, fighters, and fans to believe that over 50% of our athletes are using some form of performing enhancement drug. I cannot speak for others, but I do believe those numbers are over hyped, and the only thing I can do is offer my honesty.
I am doing this to show the fans that there are plenty of clean athletes out there. The assumption that we are mostly all using PED's really bothers me, because I train so hard, respect my body, and sacrifice so much to compete. I cannot accept being labled as a possible cheater. As a father, I instill the same values in my children and living a clean lifestyle will allow me to hopefully live a long healthy life to care for them.
I hope you take this letter into consideration,
Sincerely,
Gerald D. Harris II

p.s. I have included a reference. Dr ************* is one of Oklahoma's most highly respected men in the medical and sports business. I also agree to any testing during my camps, before/after fights, & random drug testing at any point/time.
I know some of his fights were snoozers, but he should get rehired by the UFC just for referring to himself as GeraldHares.
3 out of 4 of his fights he won by TKO or KO. Two of them were knockout of the night; then he has one boring performance and hes released. That still doesn't make any sense to me at all, even if it was awhile ago.
I don't personally remember his fight before Falcao, but I recall it being part of the reason he was released. Mir/CroCop ended in a KO but was still a lame contest.

I agree. He is a solid prospect. Could be better could be worse but solid overall.
I REALLY respect what he is doing here and wish waaayyy more fighters would take note and follow suit. Armstrong being ousted as he was has probably gotten the public perception as negative as it has ever been against athletes in general but especially for "those barbaric cagefighters". Props to PaulHarris' cousin Couldn't resist.

The fight before Falcao was a slam KO...something that very rarely happens in an MMA fight. Thus he got hyped a ton and put on a boring performance after and got released...Just seemed like something shady was going on......

The slam KO was beautiful. But if I remember correctly wasn't that fight really boring until the slam finish?
