UFC legend Holly Holm is eyeing to fight Kayla Harrison at UFC 300. The former UFC women’s bantamweight champion recently disclosed that she is hopeful that her opponent will make it to the 135-pound weight category for their bout.

Harrison has fought in the PFL’s 155-pound weight division since her mixed martial arts debut in 2018. It has been noted that she had one bout at 145 pounds in 2020 but she has never fought at 135 pounds. UFC President and CEO Dana White had revealed that she conducted a ‘test cut’ before signing with the promotion.

Meanwhile, Holly Holm has not fought for a UFC title since 2019, when Amanda Nunes defeated her via first-round TKO at UFC 239. Her last and only title bout victory took place when she shocked the world in 2015 by defeating Ronda Rousey with a second-round knockout at UFC 193.

Holly Holm expects Kayla Harrison to make weight

Speaking to Ariel Helwani of The MMA Hour, Holly Holm stated:

“I’m on the stance that you need to make weight. That’s just how it is, and I think that her mindset should be on, ‘I’m going to make weight’ because she took the fight at 135. I think it’s simple. I don’t think it should be super detailed. You think about the [cancelled UFC 291] fight with [Stephen] ‘Wonderboy’ [Thompson], his opponent [Michel Pereira] came in three pounds over.”

Holly Holm continued:

“People are like, ‘oh, it’s only three pounds’ and he’s like, ‘well, yeah, if it’s only three pounds then go lose the three pounds’. There’s two ways to look at it. Oh, it’s only this or well, it’s only that. You can look at it from a lot of different angles, but as a professional, it’s just guys have got to make weight. I work hard to make my weight so I expect the same.”

We will have to wait and see if the clash takes place.
