“I love Amanda (Nunes) and I think she’s incredible. I don't want to piss off our teammates and coaches, but I'm at that point in my life where I know my worth and I want to see what happens. The best compliment I can give is that I want to fight Amanda. I want to fight, but then go out to eat with her, without rivalry” said Harrison, in an interview with 'MMA Junkie'.

With respect, Kayla still doesn't know if she will, in fact, sign a contract with Ultimate. Still, the two-time Olympic champion stated that Amanda is the 'best in history' and has a lot of respect for the 'Lioness'.

“There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for a teammate and I don’t do it out of spite. But it's just business, you know? It's an honor to be mentioned in the same sentence as her. Amanda is the greatest of all time for a reason, and I put a lot of respect into that name, and I don't call people the greatest of all time for nothing,” she concluded.

Kayla harrison, 31 years old, has a 'perfect record' in MMA. Professional since 2018, he has 11 consecutive victories in his career. She became known in martial arts after winning two Olympic gold medals, competing in judo. His first came in 2012, in London, and the second, in Rio de Janeiro, in 2016.
