Bantamweight star Kayla Harrison says she had health problems going into UFC 307 last Saturday.
Kayla Harrison says she was "peeing blood" in the week before her win over Ketlen Vieira at UFC 307 last Saturday.
The two-time Olympic judo champion's victory lifted her into the number one contender spot for Julianna Pena's bantamweight title."I need to take a little bit of time off just because of the weight cut and the process that it is for my body," Harrison told TMZ."The first time was fear of, like, 'Can I do it?'
"This time it was fear of, like, 'Oh God, I have to do it'. The anticipation. But I'm blessed. I have such a good team." The UFC was aware Harrison attended the hospital the week before her bout, but the fighter did not elaborate on what caused the problems. Pena dethroned Raquel Pennington in a controversial split decision points win at UFC 307, but opted to call out retired champion Amanda Nunes rather than Harrison after her victory.Power and control at the top of societyKit Harington stars in the new series of IndustryWhat to look out for in Women's Champions League group stageWatch best shots as England chase down South Africa total for victory.
