Kayla Harrison gets new opponent for PFL 2022 regular season finale

There’s a late switch to the PFL 2022, Week 6 main event.

ESPN first reported that former Bellator women’s featherweight champion Julia Budd is injured and out of her scheduled matchup with two-time PFL women’s lightweight champion Kayla Harrison, and has been replaced by Kaitlin Young.

Young (12-12-1) is coming off a loss to Budd last October, and was only listed as an alternate for this year’s PFL regular season. Her only win under the PFL banner in three fights was a decision over Cindy Dandois.

Harrison (13-0) dominated Marina Mokhnatkina in her regular season debut, but in a rarity she was unable to get the finish.
