Olympic champion Kayla Harrison is ready to show the MMA world what she’s got.

A two-time gold medalist in judo, the 27-year-old Harrison joined the World Series of Fighting promotion as a commentator last year, with the understanding that she could potentially compete for the organization. The WSOF recently became the Professional Fighters League and released its schedule for the 2018 season.

Harrison announced Monday on The MMA Hour that she will make her professional MMA debut at a June 21 PFL show at the Chicago Theater in Chicago.
