Professional Fighters League’s biggest star will get to fight before year’s end after all.
Two-time lightweight champion Kayla Harrison will return to action against Julia Budd in a 145-pound showcase bout at the 2023 PFL Championships on Nov. 24. The pairing was announced on Wednesday. The PFL Championship takes place at The Anthem in Washington, D.C., and airs on pay-per-view via ESPN+. The card will feature $1 million championship bouts in six different weight classes. A price point for the pay-per-view was not revealed.
Harrison was originally slated to face Budd at a PFL regular season event in July 2022 before her opponent pulled out of the contest due to an injury.
