Dana White reveals UFC is ready to sign Kayla Harrison when she hits free agency

Kayla Harrison continues to take names in the Professional Fighters League, recently dispatching lightweight Mariana Morais in under two minutes. Her name, already well established thanks to winning gold twice at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, continues to turn heads in the MMA world.

Dana White has been asked about her in the past. And it’s the usual hardball language we’re accustomed to seeing: like how the UFC is “another level.” But his stance seems to be softening if his latest interview is any indication.

“Yeah, I know her contract’s up soon,” White told the guys of Big Night Breaks.
