Overview
- Speaking on Jorge Masvidal’s Death Row MMA podcast in coverage published Tuesday, Harrison said a CT scan next week could clear her to start drilling with sparring expected a few weeks later.
- She said the Nunes matchup remains her target when she returns, though no bout agreement or event has been set and any early‑fall talk is outlet speculation based on her update.
- After facing Nunes, Harrison plans to ask the UFC to add a 145‑pound option or she may walk away, citing the strain of repeated cuts to 135 and noting she would still consider a legacy fight with Valentina Shevchenko.
- Harrison has resumed limited gym work focused on strength and conditioning and said missing the UFC’s planned White House card stung because she had aimed to compete on it.
- She also criticized Ronda Rousey’s recent promotion, calling one judo story “a blatant lie” and dismissing claims about the Gina Carano comeback fight on Netflix, reflecting a broader pushback on nostalgia marketing in women’s MMA.
