Win Methods
"The Hammer". That's what they call RJ Harris, and is part of the UFC heavyweight division's deep end, fighting out of the United States — 6 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.
The ground is where fights end: 3 wins by submission (50% of the total). Scrambles that look even suddenly aren't. Add a 80" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.
He arrives on a 5-fight win streak — most recently Alvin Hines, KO/TKO (Punch) R1. Streaks like that don't stay unnoticed for long.
