The UFC president, Dana White isn’t so keen to sign Kayla Harrison right now as he already stated multiple times in the past that Harrison hasn’t faced elite-level competition until now. But Harrison is determined to prove White wrong and in her latest interview with MMA Fighting, Harrison says,

“Dana has said a lot of things before, It’s my job. If I want to fight in the UFC someday, if I want to fight at featherweight for the UFC someday, then it’s my job to prove to him that I’m worth the investment and I’m worth the risk. All I can do is to continue to go out there and be so dominant and continue to be so good that you can’t ignore me. I know that I’ll do that.”

“He says a lot of stuff and I know that I’m going to make him eat his words and he’ll smile when he does it and it will be great. I’m not worried about it. That time is coming.” {H/T MMA Mania}
