Kayla Harrison explains importance of becoming UFC world champion

UFC star Kayla Harrison has explained why it’s so important for her to become a UFC world champion.

At UFC 316, Kayla Harrison will finally get the opportunity to win championship gold in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. She’ll be going up against Julianna Pena, the two-time UFC women’s bantamweight champion, as she tries to follow up on her PFL title success by claiming a belt in the biggest MMA promotion in the world.

A lot of people think Kayla Harrison should be the favorite in this one but as we know, mixed martial arts is an unpredictable game.
