UFC vet Gerald Harris joins HDNet's Legacy Fighting 10 lineup

Next month's Legacy Fighting Championships 10 lineup has undergone a few changes.

Chief among them? UFC vet Gerald Harris, who's fresh off a pair of Tachi Palace Fights and DREAM victories, has joined the Feb. 24 lineup.

Harris (19-4) now fights fellow middleweight Artenas Young (7-4) on the night's HDNet-televised main card, Legacy officials confirmed with MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).

Young's original opponent, William "Bubba" Bush (3-1), remains on the card. However, an opponent hasn't been determined.

Legacy Fighting 10 takes place at Houston's Arena Theater. At least six fights are expected to be part of the night's live HDNet-televised main card.

Harris, who surprisingly was released from the UFC in 2010 following a 3-1 run in the organization, is a former IFL fighter who competed on "The Ultimate Fighter 7." The former Cleveland State University wrestler knocked out John Salter, Mario Miranda and Dave Branch (with two "KO of the Night" awards) under the UFC banner before a decision loss to Maiquel Falcao resulted in his UFC release. The loss snapped a 10-fight win streak for the part-time comedian.

Harris now looks to go 3-1 in his post-UFC career when he meets Young, who looks to rebound from a Shark Fights 20 loss to recent UFC signee Clifford Starks. The onetime Strikeforce returns to Legacy for the first time since early 2011, when he earned a decision victory over Jonathan Mack.
