On the 29th of this month, the angelic-featured, gentle-voiced, slender-framed Swansea flyweight – who moonlights as a forklift driver for Amazon and still lives at home with his folks – gets to share a prize ring with menacing Mexican mangler Julio Cesar Martinez at The Star in Frisco, Texas, USA (read Mexico!), for the cherished green WBC strap. Politely, there aren’t too many predicting that happy Harris’ first venture on the world stage shall prove a successful one.
