Booked to make a stunning move and debut in the Octagon later this year amid years of constant speculation, two-time PFL (Professional Fighters League) lightweight tournament winner, Kayla Harrison has opened as a sizeable betting favorite to beat former bantamweight champion, Holly Holm, following the announcement of their UFC 300 clash in April.
