Ponzinibbio Stops Harris, Then Loses Two Fights
The win ended a two-fight skid. Ponzinibbio later lost to Daniel Rodriguez and Sam Patterson, leaving the January 2025 victory as a return to form rather than the start of a confirmed title run.
Ponzinibbio Stops Harris in Round Three
The welterweight bout was the co-main event at the Apex arena in Las Vegas. Ponzinibbio pressed through the contest and finished Harris with strikes at 3:13 of the final round. The official results list Mackenzie Dern’s third-round armbar win over Amanda Ribas as the main event and Ponzinibbio’s TKO as the co-main result.
What Followed the Win
Ponzinibbio lost to Daniel Rodriguez by third-round TKO on May 3, 2025. He returned on July 25, 2026, and Sam Patterson stopped him with strikes at 3:06 of round two. The Harris victory remains a notable rebound, but the latest result is the Patterson loss; no next bout has been announced.
The later results show why the Harris win should be read as a single rebound rather than the start of an uninterrupted run. Ponzinibbio lost to Rodriguez in May 2025 and Patterson in July 2026. The January stoppage remains a notable victory, but the latest recorded result is the Patterson loss.
