No one could possibly blame Walt Harris for his emotional state heading into a fight against Alistair Overeem back in May.
The veteran heavyweight competed for the first time following the tragic murder of his stepdaughter Aniah Blanchard, and the circumstances surrounding his fight against Alistair Overeem was unlike anything he had ever experienced before.
Never one to make excuses, Harris had no intentions of backing out of the fight, or not showing up to put on the best performance possible, but he’s cognizant enough to know he was far less than his best that night.
