Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunes are officially locked in for UFC 334, after the veteran MMA fighters hit their marks at 135 pounds during Friday's official weigh-in.
Kayla Harrison, Amanda Nunes Take the Stage at UFC Weigh-In
Harrison stepped on the scale first and landed right on the bantamweight limit. Nunes followed close behind, also weighing in at 135 pounds.
The UFC weigh-in carried extra meaning for both. Harrison made the title limit after undergoing neck surgery, while Nunes returns after 41 months away from the Octagon.
The pair was originally set to meet at UFC 324 in January, but Harrison's neck surgery pushed the fight back.
What's at Stake in the UFC 334 Women's MMA Fight
Harrison (19-1), a two-time Olympic gold medalist in judo, will make the first defense of the bantamweight title she took from Julianna Peña at UFC 316 in June 2025. Nunes (23-5), a former two-division champion and Hall of Famer, last fought in 2023 before retiring.
The former American Top Team teammates now meet with a title, bragging rights, and their legacies on the line.
The women's MMA fight serves as the co-main event on Saturday at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane headlines the card against Josh Hokit, with the main event set for 9 PM ET.
