Out due to USADA test
Harris will not fight Josh Parisian at UFC Vegas 77 on July 15 because of an issue with his latest USADA test, he announced on his Twitter account Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
It appears Harris tested for a positive supplement. According to the heavyweight, it was a supplement he has trusted throughout his UFC career but was never USADA-approved. For the next few weeks, Harris will be working with the UFC and USADA to resolve whatever issues may occur concerning his fight availability. It is possible that because of this latest hiccup, he may not fight again in 2023.

Falls out of Tuivasa fight
Harris will no longer be taking on Tai Tuivasa at UFC 267 on Oct. 30, Raphael Marinho of Combate.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear what exactly forced the withdrawal of Harris, but Tuivasa will now be taking on Augusto Sakai at the Nov. 20 UFC event instead. Harris, meanwhile, finds himself at a career crossroads after losing three consecutive fights at the age of 38. While the competition has been more than respectable, Harris is currently a long way from "contender" status, and any potential injury certainly won't help his case.
