Off the back of her impressive submission win over former bantamweight champion, Holly Holm at UFC 300 earlier this month, promotional newcomer, Kayla Harrison has been accused of turning down a title-eliminator fight with Ketlen Vieira at – after calling her shot at gold.
Harrison, a former two-time PFL (Professional Fighters League) lightweight tournament victor, made he anticipated Octagon debut earlier this month on the preliminary card of UFC 300, taking home a one-sided second round rear-naked choke submission win over the above-mentioned, Holm.
And immediately staking a claim for a shot at bantamweight spoils – currently held by veteran, Raquel Pennington, Harrison also found prior links to a fight with former two-division titleholder, Amanda Nunes sprout again – who appeared surprised at the Ohio native’s failure to call her out following her successful UFC landing.
