Media Julianna Pena goes OFF on Kayla Harrison at press conference, calls her a weight bully

[Contempt]

How dare she speak to Triple H like that.

Legitimately fucking LOLed

 

[MC Paul Barman]

Don’t talk about Kyle like that.

I know, I know… us men need to stick together. Building each other up, not mocking perceived hyper-masculinity.

 

[cmw43]

Pena has 4 wins in the last 8 years. 3 of them fighters not currently in the UFC and the 4th being a fighter that most people thought should have actually be the winner.

Hopefully Kayla demolishes her and we don't have to hear about her again

Why does everyone hate on Pena, you're really trying to discredit her by not mentioning the fact that two of those fights were against the womens GOAT.

 

[sonhow]

Won a controversial decision. 25 media members scored it for Pennington and only 1 scored it for Pena. Going into that fight Pena had zero wins over active UFC fighters.

As if active wbws are better than ever lol

 

[Tapatio]

Kayla fears that weight cut. You can see it in her face when Pena brings it up. Kayla loses a year of her life for every pound she has to sweat out. Her body is telling her no, you can't be doing this. You're killing us. And she's not listening. Pretty sick and disturbing. Pissing blood is absolutely never a good thing.

 

[NoSmilez]

Harrison isn't a technician. If she is going to stop Pena then it's going to be ugly and brutal on the ground.

 

[RockyLockridge]

Pena is probably the most disliked wmma fighter out there. Nobody wants to listen to her talking.
Her striking sucks ass. How can you train fighting for 18 years and look like you are in the boxing gym for 18 days???
How uncoordinated can your body be?
So many overachievers with terrible wmma

How are the odds? Apart from a hail marry sub, she has 0 tools in this fight.

Shes going to have WAY better conditioning not fighting in utah, and also going 5 rounds she has gas for days and heart for years. Nunes knocked her down sereval times and she got right up and kept on getting knocked down over and over. she has a tenacity that is severally lacking in WMMA and can use alone to win.

I've always described her as a 19 year old male with ZERO MMA training fighting pro WMMA fighters.

 

[BangBang]

Pena is insufferable. At least Kayla smeshes people sometimes.

The night she submitted Nunes was a gift to MMA. Unforgettable.

 

[doggo]

If i'm not mistaken Pena beat the snot out of Ronda's protegees or something like that back in the day? In TUF right? I liked her since.

 

[jeff7b9]

Good lord that is brutal to listen to.

 

[jeff7b9]

And she’s aging like wine.

Turning to vinegar?

 

[BangBang]

I don't for a second think Pena stands a chance here btw, once Kayla gets a hold of her then I'd expect it is, goodbye pretty face!

 

[Tweak896]

I think Kayla should be a -1000 favorite. Not only has Pena been inactive, but she went life and death with Pennington. Pena got the break of her life to beat Nunes because Nunes was basically bored defending the title, given a free win. She could rematch Nunes 100 more times and she got her lucky win already.

 

[Ginja_Ninja]

I know wmma is hard to watch but didn't realize how hard it is to listen. Terrible

 

[CatchtheseHands]

If Pena can survive getting man handled early and she can turn it into a dog fight she certainly has a chance to win. If Kayla can't finish Pena in the 1st round or 2 she's most definitely gonna have to win by decision cause I don't see Kayla having the energy to finish Pena after the 2nd round with the brutal weight cut.

 

[Poirierfan]

Pena needs to talk while she still can.

 

[Streeter]

It's not a/weight bully when you got no choice. Either make 135 or fight in PFL or Invicta and have noone watch . Kayla wpuld much rather fight at 145 or even en 155 . There's no place to do so in UFC.

 

[KO Shotz]

I'm not gonna lie, I'm excited for this one.

Yeah zero tools, it's not like we're seeing a wave of cardio monsters win championships and Harrison is a 70+kgs monster doing a nightmarish cut.

 

[USA!USA!]

LOL at calling fighters in the UFC weight bullies.. what fucking year is it? That shit is normal and expected in 2025.
