This is objectively the biggest women's MMA fight you could make right now. But i would argue this isn't the biggest women's MMA fight of all time. This is almost flying under the radar and should've been saved for the White House card. Kayla is a savage but most people don't know who she is. If i were the UFC, I would've rushed her to as many title defenses as possible, then set this fight up. Because i genuinely feel this should be the biggest women's MMA fight of all time and may be between two of the best big women ever, but unfortunately Kayla isn't as household of a name as Ronda, Gina or Cyborg were. The reason I wish it went down a little different is because I want Kayla to get her flowers. She is the only US olympian on the UFC roster, she is a great fighter and a great person. If she is going to fight the GOAT of her division, she should get as many eyes as possible. This breakdown is very Kayla heavy and that's because I think she wins. You can't just casually take 2.5 years off and come back to beat Kayla. Amanda left American Top Team because she knew they would eventually fight and you don't do that if you're the one getting the better of the sparring sessions. I think Kayla is too big, too good at Judo and in too close to her prime so she's the pick and I have money on her because I expect these odds to widen.
Kayla Harrison
Kayla Harrison is the most accomplished American Judoka of all time. Think Ronda Rousey but instead of a Bronze Medal, she has an olympic gold medal and not just 1, she is a 2 time olympic gold medalist and multi-time time world champion. She has been at American Top Team for years which has only added tools to her arsenal. She is absolutely tremendous and rock solid. Her striking isn't great but she can be powerful and really just uses it to setup takedowns. She is coming off the dominant title win over Juliana Pena
Kayla Harrison
Amanda Nunes is widely considered the GOAT of all GOATs. She is a former 2 division champion who not only won the belts but defended them concurrently. He only in the last 11 years was avenged. She has destroyed almost every person they have put in front of her and she has done it any way she wants to. She has incredible power in her hands but she also has wrestling and Jiu Jitsu. She averages almost 3 takedowns per fight and has a very impressive striking differential. She is making her return to the UFC after 2.5 years on the mommy scene.
