Energized Show hosts Jared Harris ahead of Cage Fight Series 13 on 10 March 2023 in Austria, where he faces Florence Stan. Harris says he is coming off a big win at Cage Fight Series 12, that his viral post-fight mic work was off the cuff, and that he and Paul Browne did Cage Legacy Fighting Championship commentary and hope to do more this year. He describes unchanged training at Charlestown after Owen Roddy left for The Ultimate Fighter, with Max still in sessions, extra work at Rhino, and recent rounds with Neil Seery, Jamie Abbott, Andreas, and Georgie from Paddy's gym. He says he is now one of the gym's main coaches after Roddy and Gav Kelly, runs advanced kids classes, and supports open Tuesday/Thursday mat sparring for experienced fighters from any gym. Harris expects a fast finish against Stan, credits his amateur career and Cage Fight Series exposure on UFC Fight Pass for his pro momentum, and outlines plans to fight abroad—ideally in the USA by year end if bouts land. He also talks up standing out on crowded Irish cards and sends a blunt message to Cage Warriors matchmakers about a Dublin slot.

Kind: captions Language: en foreign [Applause] okay what's going on guys welcome to a brand new episode of energize are you intoxicated or something today we have the king of cage fight series it is the GTA selector the Flyway Sensation that is JR Harris Jared how you doing bud what's the crack boys all good good to be right great to have you back reread he is uh Jer we're gonna get straight into it you're coming off a massive win uh cage fight series 12. you're now flying on cage fight Series 13 But Not only was your performance absolutely epic it was the post for the promo afterwards was that rehearsed or was that just off the cuff ah that just rolls off the tongue that stuff to be honest I didn't be surprised I'm already saying myself half the time at one stage we were sort of like maybe they should cancel the rest of the fights and just leave Jerry Harris on the mic but then by the time I got my bike and got changed and all I never even thought about coming up and asking them again um yeah because I do like yeah I'll commentary yeah because I'm not too bad a bit cracked like and we looked okay we uh we saw you and Paul Brown do a cage Legacy I'm there that was fairly epic yeah they were going to enjoy them hopefully get back on another couple this year or enjoy the commentary and it's a nice little [ __ ] different way of watching The Voice and because you're trying to explain what's going on and obviously I'm just getting excited watching that anyway you know what I mean no absolutely definitely get the fans energized Ross yeah he definitely tours he definitely does it's definitely a unique style uh only the ballymun Superman could uh pull that off but uh Jared tell us this uh obviously uh you are happy with cage fight series you're back up again with them um you always be knocking on the door of a title shot already you know I mean you're obviously one of the biggest Superstars they have on that show already Brazilian boy I think he's actually at the sign in for cage Warriors now but there was Little Talks afterwards and maybe me and him fighting for the toilet because they have no throw away toilet and then obviously I think he's me off the cage Warriors or something like that now so and we'll see what happens I'll be a pretty impressive Victory as well didn't he sorry he had a very cool Victory as well he was on straight after you that was okay you probably have a few uh shots of Select from uh we'll hit you with kitchen sink you wouldn't even know it I love her I love her uh tell us this one uh obviously Owen Roddy's gone off to The Ultimate Fighter uh which is pretty cool uh the Mac is back um what's training camping like now with that oh oh God training camp doesn't change it just stay putting in the graph getting the walked on walk in um yeah just showing up to the gym every day it's just about being consistent um Max has been there on some ground and pound sessions always being there on the strike and sessions I've also been going down to uh Rhino and getting some extra sessions in down there and then uh Neil's here he's been there on some extra walk with me lately um of the last week until uh getting getting ready for the fight yeah tell us about that uh obviously Neo series cage Warriors double Trump what's allowed to get to get to working with him with the UFC vet I just like get into a stage now where like the legs recorder and stuff have left their gym so it's like I'm the longest member in the gym and I'm uh like Andreas is there is like Andreas level boys is there as well but level boys it's me and Andreas and there's a couple of [ __ ] like like the weight difference between those two was very hard to be down around for each other so the likes of them Georgie from over and Paddy's gym we've been getting up uh Jamie Abbott we've been doing some rounds of it and then definitely with nail let's just like get get and put in bad positions where I'm usually not being poor in because of the level now I mean like so especially when all the lads are coming up on the like on their own and that they wanna owns classes and we've been obviously training on them only for now all the sequences off the bat and so with the lads are learning right now and so now the defense to the defense so it's nice to go somewhere else and failed different bodies out and yeah get like just they they change together sequences differently and yeah Neil's been like poor in the Army and yeah making the sessions hurt that seems to be something that's a quite prominent uh in Charlestown is that one of um owns philosophies because I've seen like uh Andrea has been there go up to foreign um well it's just that I think it's down to the individuals as well like if like the Lord said me Max Andreas like we are believer the blame the best in in the world not the country you know what I mean so we're gonna go and test ourselves against all the bodies and I think that's how you like one of the best ways you grow as before because if you're only in like only in the wrong place you're moving around with the exact same bodies all the time it's like that stuff gets repetitive so it's good to be tested in different areas like my little brother boxes for Valley Book and they probably have a box in different boxing gym down with them every Saturday now what I mean so if you're doing any other sports um and I remember when I was boxing it was the same it was there was a different gym down every Sunday and saviors and yeah you're getting you're getting tested by different bodies you have to learn different types of Toyman you have to break down different games you have to set up different game plans and that's really trying to add into the air like identity camps like like send some an amateur I've always tried to go and get extra rounds here and there but now with their like Roy now zombie down the road and then we have like Georgie from Paddy's gym has been coming over and getting extra walk in with me with and he's [ __ ] he's playing Storm and The Amateur saying at the moment so yeah oh yeah I think Georgie was 30 26 there uh last weekend that you're so uh shout out to to Jordy no it's great to see uh especially uh when you turn pro you know what I mean like you don't really well I'm not mad on seeing too many or anniversary unfortunately I know you're talking that that was brilliant I don't mind when your first couple of fights but you know I Advance on further in your career I think there's less need for Ireland versus Ireland so it's uh it's cool to see you know you're getting the work in and you know I suppose everyone benefits you all upscale from it a million percent and it's yeah everybody upscales and like always we put up their two or three weeks or maybe it was a month ago um about Tuesdays and tours days open much for like at like from oh look like we prefer to have blade and obviously Floyd's bantamweight but the likes Max and uh stuff is going to be coming up and they want the album mat as well so that's open to like to anybody anybody from any gym and once you have a couple of fights so like they want to open mats like that and just running trail drills so starting and single starting and starting to get back in good or maybe I didn't strike and I must stand strike around we do a few striking drills and then you're getting rounds and then box wrestling rounds like trying to get like a little bit more of like the uh the origin like to get out and deal more around the maintenance more of a regular thing right and because even if it doesn't [ __ ] matter they play next week you have like one of the amateur kids is playing for it Monday amateur kids they were let's say in houla hands or right now it doesn't matter because it's only an amateur record at the end of the day they're gonna like if like if they want the day one which anything with that amateur career and make a big and go and do win all these only maths they need to be going and getting all the freedom rounds they can and like test themselves everywhere and that goes for us like any level of prose know what I mean like let's say the like to the highest level Bros bring people into that camp so why shouldn't we be doing it no remain no I definitely agree and I think you know at the moment like it's a it's definitely a formula that's working for yourself so uh long may it lasts and I'm sure you know when other GMC your body like yours come in like they're they're deloitted to have such a high skilled uh foil or come in and test themselves against their own foilers because even if you go in there and get the better someone well then at least that person knows that's the level they have to be at I know next time they know what I mean and yeah what you want and like you're there to help each other and walk with each other but also it's yeah dare to test yourself against them and that's what we want and that's what I think it's so good about having a culture good like like as I'm like I don't know like like the real and air Jam is if you're fighting on the Charlestown you make alone sessions if you make all his sessions he has no problem with you get an extra walk in elsewhere just once it's not and it's not taken away from your sessions energy [Laughter] bus exactly Jared from coaching train out as well like it sort of seems like I know it seems like you're just maturing like just run to front of our eyes and like I remember we had John a few years ago as energized first ever want to watch and like just just that's why you're speaking now it's just like you seem to have like just progressed in the mindset yeah again I'm getting a lot better I speak and not so much airs and [ __ ] while I'm playing that's so disappointing but maybe it's the glasses but maybe it's the glasses as well and maybe no Friday maybe fans for that's what you say man that's what we say well yeah now it's working I think I'll like the teaching helps like always being coaching since like helping coaching from 15 like I got me blue belt when I was 15 and then I started helping them with the teens classes and then progressively like bringing like getting extra rounds in on the weekends and like bringing Lads up and showing them a little bit so I'm doing hold them pads and then obviously now I'm probably one of their uh like I'm one of the main coaches in the gym like I'll be probably next on the Roddy other than gav Kelly like um yeah and I think just just around the coach and I think it developed a skill set to another level because you have to understand all your techniques as well but also how you learn how to break down things for all the different people learn until you know what I mean because some people can just watch it and they'll just do something straight away some people need a broke down step by step and yeah everybody's different so you can't be playing uh [ __ ] this uh what we're doing when i'm trying to coach something you know what I mean so trying to stay on the ball a little bit more attract them every now and again but the kids classes now I do Advanced kids classes on a Tuesday and a Floyd they opened the gym for getting them ready for competitions and or just love putting them back into the gym because like for five an hour like the Lord said like we have like young Charlie style and Young Ben Martin uh young Leon Galley like these Lads are only that's gonna be standing and you're putting it back in with them and then like you can see you can see them developing rounds and you're saying them they're all better and yes you're saying up all the techniques off against with our bodies and when you're saying that and or when that the room around the jail and they have success with so on my gallery playing backstepper open our chair and it's like you're bringing their levels along and them getting better is only making me better because I have to answer all yeah I have to answer all the questions yeah when you're deep when you're when you're going with some new friend you have to dig deeper into your bag of tricks to to come up or come about on top that's definitely something that you can definitely smile a bit about so uh no that's that that's uh that's brilliant coach chairs uh a force be reckoned with in the Irish amazing uh I ain't know I'm bringing all the boys out in a few years you're gonna have some security some of the killers on the same Series 13 you're going over to Austria you're floating floating uh Florence Stan and his nickname is unbreakable uh how long will that unbreakable nickname last in the case in seconds when a break is playing Facebook won't really hands and that'll be it this kid do we think uh at this point will be shorter than the last one we don't know we're looking to finish any second I'm in there I know what I mean and that's that's it like we're going in there I'm gonna put the shots on him and he's gonna crumble yeah just just so I know for The Bookies will you be in the cage longer fighting or on the mic I'm probably longer on the week you know that [Laughter] oh that's that's epic obviously Jerry you had a very very successful amateur career and uh your broker has taken the same effect but do you think that successful amateur career has set you up to move maybe quicker up the ranks uh in your professional career yeah hopefully she'll like showed like with I've had good for your opportunity so far like with the likes a cage conflict gave me a good like forced professionally and then then cage for each year he's like like they're in on 40 pass so like and like that's that's the sort of that's the pull that cage Warriors have obviously like a lot of lads have gone to the UFC from cage Warriors but it's also the fact it's the audience that hitting the hit in that year of C4 pass audience and yeah fail that's what I'm doing it like I'm getting that from cage 4 Series anyway so yeah hopefully the voids come along like I'd love to maybe fight across the water a little bit forward or maybe an American instead like testing out what the scene is like over there as well say on and off um well yeah I definitely think it's it's set me up for like about a fight as a pro and I think all the bigger shows and the look at your amateur career even though I don't have many fights they're looking at people here with four and the way I've finished me for it and the way I speak and the way they see me and what I'm doing now is a pro I think it's they'll wake me up quick now remember the star quality there the star quality isn't um one of the best in the world as it is now what I mean whether that's speaking or not for you okay we'll be at the top and now time like we would love to be in like in my head or you think we can be in the USA by the end of the year if not have two fights just once I get the fights I'll leave a big problem I'm marbling pull outs and I [ __ ] brother I keep saying this ridiculous so yeah hopefully the fights come off now um and if we turn coming off on this side of the water maybe we go across and see what the story is uh hopefully I'll make some links up boilies over there and things like that like I know where when Dean buddy was in their gym there was the link to that toy in FC and see a couple of people fighting on that combat Global so I'm sorry I think to myself the opportunity before you on this as well now what I mean because like that it's tomorrow it's about like the more you're traveling far forwards the more exposure you're gonna have across the world isn't it and I'm already a world champion so let's make it happen again yeah well I think like some of your comments are very very valid like for instance Bellator was on over the weekend and there was no less than 12 SPG photos on the card so it's really hard to stand out there as well and then the okum cage Warriors card it's like full of ours as well it's gonna be really hard for people to stand out on that as well they're gonna have to really really put it on a great performance of course you're going over yourself now on the 13th 10th no no I haven't written here sorry you're at the 10th on the uh the third month of the year March together bosmo yeah no on cage Point Series 13 on the 10th of March excuse me on the Friday that's going to be like UC foil past everyone's going to be tuning in especially after your last fight it went so viral this time around they're gonna be checking out as well to not only see a fight but see what you say on the mic afterwards because uh it's like yummy it's difficult to stand out in a huge crowd but if you're going overboard yourself flowing the flag yourself everyone's gonna be tuning in and I know they will because everyone can't get enough of the GTA selected uh you know that but that's what we recognize empty [Laughter] it's like you go in there whether it's Jiu-Jitsu wrestling blade MMA whatever you're going in there to finish them for you and result so far they speak for themselves in our demand so that's what I'm gonna look to continue well they look to finish fights and have a good time down cage Wars Matchmaker a message to get in the Dublin card what would you say to him I don't know just tell them to have a looker and already annoying here to break people's faces and that's [ __ ] Nick get someone up on that get someone up on that cage what is my and I'll light them up like a Christmas tree you know what I mean there's like no problems oil will be the biggest star on that show easy absolutes there you have it what are you Dean watches the show so uh he he might have a look at you after this chair um yeah cage fight series might be annoyed so I hope he didn't watch this far at the show because we will definitely take in Indiana as well so look if cage phone series want to keep a hold of the GTA selector they have to get the wallet out and they're paying the big books it
