Fans recently reacted to Kayla Harrison revealing her weight after rehydration for her UFC 300 bout against Holly Holm.
The two-time Olympic gold medal-winning judoka made her highly anticipated octagon debut this past Saturday and performed as advertised. She overpowered Holm before submitting her with a rear-naked choke in the second round.
During her appearance on today's episode of The MMA Hour, Harrison said that the weight cut didn't affect her as she recovered approximately 20 pounds the following morning and an additional five pounds later that night:
"Saturday morning, I was 154 pounds. And then by the time I got to the venue, I think I was with my clothes on 160 [pounds], like, with my shoes and stuff on their scale."
Check out Kayla Harrison's comments below:
Fans weighed in on the former PFL women's lightweight champion's revelation by sharing their sympathy for 'The Preacher's Daughter'. Some mentioned that Holm was at a disadvantage, while others were skeptical as to whether Harrison could continue cutting to 135 pounds.
"Good god. Poor Holly lol"
"How will any 135er beat her? Anyone know what Nunes used to weigh at the venue? When fighting BW"
"What is the point in weigh ins, or even weight classes if no one actually fights at the weight they weighed in at?"

Is Kayla Harrison fighting for UFC women's bantamweight title next?
Kayla Harrison believes that her submission win over Holly Holm warrants a UFC women's bantamweight title fight next, but she also recently said that there could be other plans.
During the aforementioned interview, Harrison said that she heard that current champion Raquel Pennington could be sidelined for the time being. She mentioned that she would like to fight for the title and proposed another alternative, saying:
"I heard that 'Rocky's' [Raquel Pennington] hurt all of a sudden, so she can't fight right now. I'm happy to fight whoever this summer for a title... Why not just an interim title then? And then I'll unify it and then I'll fight Amanda [Nunes]... If it's for a title, I will make myself available... My time is now. I like the sound of that [interim title fight against Julianna Pena at UFC 303]."
