Rumored Kayla Harrison has apparently signed with the UFC

[Sixstring]

At 145 I guess. She will dominate probably.

Agree. She is thick though. 145 probably a tough weight cut. Hope the move to UFC is true.

 

[PurpleDrank]

I think Daukus is just trolling lol

 

[JPW328]

No official sources?

 

[mmaknight]

She must have gotten some decent incentives to sign with the UFC and/or that she wants to punch people in the face.

Amanda said she had to get her shit together and recapture Kayla's belt

Edit:apparently this is why Nunes has left ATT

Once a quitter, always a quitter. Nunes put on the most embarrasing display of a champion in MMA history last fight, if Harrison has a decent shin, I say Harrison makes her quit again.

I don't closely follow Amanda or Kayla, why would that push Amanda out of her team, Kayla there too?

noob question probably, I just don't follow these two any deeper than having seen them fight.

There are probably many reasons, but one could be that some fighters don't like to train in the same gym as someone in their weight class, as they might be future opponents. Kayla vs Amanda would technically be a big fight, UFC will most likely push for it, and one of them has likely already said they would take the fight. Jones and Evans were a similar scenario, so it's plausible reason.

It makes no sense really. If you can sign Harrison, they should have signed Minakov back in his prime, and they should pry Amosov and Nemkov away from Bellator.

Minakov in his prime, Nemkov, Amosov all would have been top 5 at worst.

No sources?
So she could be working in the cafeteria?

 

[SKITZADACTYL]

to try and lose weight and fight in that absolutely dead as fuck non existent 145 division?

who gives a shit lmao.

 

[Grandwizard666]

They can't even find talent for 145, wtf are they going to do with a 155er
UFC trying to be entertainment and not a sport once again

Kayla v Cejudo book it Dayner


You fuckin' pink goof

 

[svmr_db]

Daukaus is probably just jumping to conclusions since Nunes left ATT.

 

[Credo]

Inb4 fighter pay chaos.

 

[PerpetualMotionMachine]

Because they think that they can make money as the top WMMA fighter now that Nunes might be on her way out.

Also, this is like the fiftieth time that scumbag Dana has been caught lying about not wanting to sign someone who is current fighting outside of the UFC.

Wait… you mean a promotions PROMOTER isn’t giving credit to fighters from other organizations? OMG the madness…

What's his track record?

makes perfect sense, just didn't know when I asked that they were out of the same gym, figured as much, but was not sure.

makes you wonder what kind of writing is on the wall, if any. Amanda being the more successful product there ... she prob realizes Kayla is about to get a rocket ship strapped to her ass. that would be tough to deal with, like Jones/ Evans

 

[eighterumg5]

Why?

Less money but bigger spotlight?
