Harrison facing Budd would have been an intriguing fight to watch. After all, Budd has been a champion at Bellator MMA. But the fight has been derailed. Harrison will now face Kaitlin Young on July 1, in Atlanta.

Harrison, who has won two gold medals at the Olympics for Judo, has an undefeated record (13-0) in professional MMA. Her opponent sports a 12-12-1 record. Hence, the upcoming women’s lightweight fight will be an interesting one to witness. However, as per ‘MMA Junkie‘, PFL is yet to make an official announcement about the new replacement for the fight.
