Kayla Harrison Admits She Was ‘Scared’ About UFC Decision | The MMA Hour

[@funkspinna]

Kayla to Ariel: "You are such a drama queen!" LOL. She ain't lying.

[@xwhite2020]

That's the content and the people flock to that content. Following sport for most people is about the stories and the drama makes the juiciest stories.

I think you're right . Kayla's probably going to be the toughest chick she's ever faced, and at her age it's not going to be pretty ... I could be wrong, because she still has her bad ass head kick so ... We'll see . :)

Kayla, despite the fact that the question was asked in Russian, these people have nothing to do with Russia. Everyone in Russia is ashamed of this man. This behavior is unacceptable towards women.

the fact that Arman entertained the question.....

[@MustObeyTheRules]

I didn’t know she was so sweet and down to earth til this interview

[@periechontology]

Yeah, like Colby Covington the other personality is an act that people convinced her that she had to put on to be popular. In her earliest interviews she was always like this. And she knew Ariel before so she wouldn't be comfortable putting on that act with him.

[@freshmenasper591]

First interview I’ve watched from her besides the UFC 300 presser, why do people hate on her? Seems extremely likeable

[@dynamic283]

This fight at 300 is the most excited I’ve been for a women’s fight in a long time. I’m praying Kayla comes out on top and gets a title fight because the bantamweight division really needs it.

[@AlexP-dz7ew]

If she can make the weight and win against Holly, she will steamroll that division for a while

[@dynamic283]

@@AlexP-dz7ew I honestly think she can, she says she’s around 150 now and I guarantee Aljo was heavier for his 135lb fights a month out and he’s carrying much more muscle

Kayla is going to become the next champ and it's going to be easy as well. The negativity towards her from people is just lame.

[@DemocratsReadMyBio]

Shes got about 2 years at most , in her prime, she better do it fast. Im very doubtful she can even beat a Raquel pennington

[@alcottdevalte7440]

@@DemocratsReadMyBio The division is at it's absolute worst and Raquel isn't even a champion caliber fighter, but good for her staying too long and winning once the division became garbage. Therefore, I expect Kayla to run through the division.

I'd be more concerned about Holly than Raquel.

[@ayo30s]

This is an excellent interaction, good luck Kayla, 👊🏾🇳🇬🇺🇸

[@ZenithAngel]

Kayla vs Holly should have been at 145

[@aaronbenhaggai973]

Shouldnt be that hard for her to get down to 136 and if she is gonna continue to fight at 135 then she should walk around at 150 155 that way weight cut will be easier

[@cheezbiskit8386]

I think Ive watch Kayla on your show 3 or 4 times by now. She really opens up and comes across as authentic, her interviews are always deep and meaningful. Always a pleasure to listen.

no hes not he's giving Kayla a shot to see if she can kick ass. He wouldn't put her on if he didn't think she can kick ass.

[@ezio666]

I’m excited to see her debut. Anyone trying with the Kayla looks like comments should at least have their face in their profile image. Easy to talk about looks while hiding. Put some respect on her name. She’s achieved a lot and comes off as a great human more importantly. People are so shallow sometimes…shameless hiding the shadows like the little trolls that they are. At least she has real confidence unlike the clowns 🤡 that think their comics on a MMA channel.

[@FightSportTalk]

She straight up ducked Cyborg and Pacheco, after claiming for years she would beat up both as well as beat men. What a joke.

[@SmithCommaBenjamin]

@@FightSportTalk Not to mention, she only decided to come to the UFC after Nunes retired. She doesn't shut up about Cyborg and Nunes, but manages to always avoid them, and always gets vague when asked about it

[@FightSportTalk]

@@SmithCommaBenjamin spot on brother. I got to do a video on this. The women's 135 division is absolute garbage and for once the better fighters are not in the UFC. As soon as that happens she runs away, when the toughest fights are in the company she is signed to. Even the PFL CEO says she ducked them. She is just another Ronda Rousey, ironic because they were close friends and teammates.

[@jblechan]

@@FightSportTalk cyroids did all the ducking. why did she fight some no name boxer when Kayla called her out last november? nobody has to wait around forever for the roid junkie to grow a set (which she probably actually has)

I've been a Kayla "fan" I guess that's what you call it, for a few years now, but really am now . She's a bad ass sweet heart . :) She's probably going to make a good cut and the 150lb. power is going to show up big time and the speed will come up, so I don't see anything but Holly being fed to the lions . Holly's been pretty much a gate keeper for a bit, but this just seems too big a jump at her level, age or whatever you want to call it . I think this is going to retire her . Bummer, because I really like Holly .

[@jasonnames]

UFC PPV's are just way too expensive...Im sure more people would buy them if they were not so expensive. If you have 10 who buy a $80 PPV...you would probably have 30 who would buy a $50 PPV. I just don't see how they justify an event that you can watch at home for almost $100. People will find a way to watch it...and if you just made it easier to afford...people would rather pay a little to watch rather than stream it illegally and have to deal with the stream cutting out or freezing every 10 mins.

[@donaldsimmons253]

I’m not sure there is an old saying perception is reality, and her leaving PFL looks like she running not from cyborg, but from the Brazilian fighter that beat her, however, Karla should not dog out cyborg, both ladies are bad asses. I don’t see anyone beating Karla in the UFC if Karla makes weight, she almost to solid at 150, also PFL has the bigger ladies where she did have to cut weight, annnnd !!! Aspen Ladd gave Karla a run for money. That’s my fear for Holly is she has no ground game that I can see. Last question why is everyone kissing Dana whites ass, he has to report to somebody above him, if my memory serves.

[@mmacourt]

.... her name is Kayla, not "Karla". And i have no idea what you are trying to say here.... fighters are not like normal people. They dont "run" from other fighters. KAYLA also beat Larissa (the Brazilian you are speaking of) first, then Larissa edged out a win in their second fight. And also to say that Holly has no ground game is silly she has won multiple fights but using her grappling. Obviously she probably doesnt have the same grappling skills of a 2 time judo olympic gold medalist but to say she has no ground game is kinda silly. This is a great match up
