Kayla Harrison is currently in a war of words with UFC President Dana White
The spotlight is on Harrison right now. The former 2012 and 2016 Olympics gold medalist in Judo, made her switch to MMA in 2018.
Since then she has run through every opponent of hers. Her record currently stands at 9 wins and 0 losses.
Harrison began grabbing the headlines after her recent win over Mariana Morais at PFL 3 (2021). She won via TKO. in the first round.
Talks of Harrison making a switch to the UFC began. She was even put in the same bracket as UFC Women’s GOAT Amanda Nunes.
Elsewhere, UFC President Dana White was asked if Harrison was ready to make the switch to the UFC, in an interview with TSN. White brushed it off saying that he didn’t know if she was ready, and that the UFC’s in a completely different level.
Harrison addressed this in an interview with Ariel Helwani, claiming that she would bring White a lot of money, subtly suggesting that White wasn’t ready to pay her.
More recently, Dominance MMA CEO Ali Abdelaziz, who has been quite vocal about Harrison and her unbelievable talent over the past few days, extended his support to the former Judo champion.
He tweeted, “Yes he’s right she’s too expensive.”
