Kayla has nothing but respect for Amanda. However, she believes there is no way around achieving greatness without facing one of the best inside the cage. Harrison spoke about her situation with “The Lioness” Amanda, she said, “Personally, I love Amanda….the greatest compliment I can give to Amanda is that I want to fight her, but I want to fight her then go out to eat after, you know? There is no animosity.”

Kayla is also helping Amanda prepare for her fight against Julianna Pena at the co-main event of UFC 269. This experience could be very important for both these athletes, and if they can figure each other out in the training, then a possible fight between them could be the greatest fight we have ever seen. Kayla’s fight against Amanda will take a long time to materialize, and she will do everything in her power to defeat “The Lioness.”
