Kayla Harrison makes jump into MMA
Looking forward to seeing her progress. If she adapts well, and is able to make the cut to 145lbs, a potential Cyborg-Harrison match would be very intriguing!

Re: Kayla Harrison makes jump into MMA
Well well well. We talked about this [Only Registered Users Can See LinksClick Here To Register] seems she took another look at the landscape. It's too bad she'll have to get that small, it just doesn't seem like it fits her. I wish the major promotions would start a division for legitimately bigger fighters, it would show a real contrast with the bantamweights. Best of luck to her anyway, she's great.

"She’s keenly aware of the hype surrounding her eventual MMA debut" Really? She's a member of malevsfemale.org? Who knew? Cool interview with TMZ about the announcement: [Only Registered Users Can See LinksClick Here To Register] From The Guardian ([Only Registered Users Can See LinksClick Here To Register]) Quote:
2015 interview with NBC Sports: [Only Registered Users Can See LinksClick Here To Register] In this 2015 interview, she did hint at it, but that interview - along with anything she may have said in 2012 when almost no one knew who she was - took place several months before she saw Ronda get Holly Holm'ed and was reminded that she really wants no part of that. Getting hit in the face is not something Olympic-level judoka are into. BUT, I have been told by a very knowledgeable source that an athletic, highly-skilled judoka can learn to box pretty well in 6-12 months. *** It is interesting that she references her personal "brand" in the Yahoo piece. I've never seen World Series of Fighting, but would love to see another promotional organization gain footing among fight fans.

"I don't know if I'm cut out for a world where you get fights based on how pretty you are or how much you talk, and not necessarily what you are worth in the ring."
Kayla says it like it is!

Re: Kayla Harrison makes jump into MMA
"Is she sexy enough." A rather dumb question for referring to an athlete. And the endless speculation about Cyborg. I'll be surprised if she ever returns to the big time.
