Kayla Harrison, following her victorious UFC debut at UFC 300, has expressed her readiness to compete for the UFC title. Harrison, who has not weighed 135 pounds since she was 16, mentioned her challenges with weight during her preparation, including a test cut where she only reached 140 pounds. On the day of the fight, she weighed 160 pounds with her clothes on. Despite these hurdles, she is eager to fight for an interim title, potentially against Julianna Pena at UFC 303 on June 29, given Raquel Pennington's reported injury. Harrison also noted her willingness to welcome Amanda Nunes back from retirement for a fight, commenting on Nunes' psychological struggles post-defeat.
