UFC 300 Results: Kayla Harrison stops Holly Holm in Round 2 (Video)
We have you covered for all of tonight’s UFC 300 results, including the bantamweight bout between Kayla Harrison and Holly Holm.
Harrison (16-1 MMA) will be making her promotional debut this evening. The multiple time PFL lightweight tournament winner was most previously seen in action in November of last year, where she scored a unanimous decision victory over Aspen Ladd.
Meanwhile, Holly Holm (15-6 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since suffering a submission loss to Mayra Bueno Silva in July of last year. That result was later overturned to a no-contest, this after Silva tested positive for ritalinic acid. Prior to that contest, the former women’s bantamweight champion was coming off a decision win over Yana Santos.
