COCONUT CREEK, Fla. – Kayla Harrison is going on 113 days since she became the proverbial belle of the ball after finishing her PFL contract with a second consecutive women’s lightweight title and $1 million prize to enter free agency.
The experience had its ups early on. But now, nearly four months later, Harrison quite frankly is “sick of it.”
“At first it was kind of fun. You got to the dances, go get wined and dined. You feel special. Everybody’s interested in you,” Harrison told MMA Junkie. “… But at this point, I know the fans are sick of it. I know the media is sick of it. I’m sick of it. I’m sure the promotions are all, like, ‘Where the hell is she going? Let’s figure this out.’ And I know that patience is a virtue, and it’s something that I sorely lack. But that this point – I already had to take a year off (2020) almost because of COVID, so I don’t wanna waste any time.”
