Kayla Harrison locks in her UFC 316 title shot with a unanimous decision win over Ketlen Vieira.
Kayla Harrison punched her ticket to a UFC championship fight this past October.
At UFC 307, the two-time PFL champion defeated longtime contender Ketlen Vieira on the main card. The dominant unanimous decision was enough to get her a shot at the UFC women’s bantamweight belt, which was claimed by Julianna Peña that same night.

Harrison (18-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) returns Saturday in the co-main event of UFC 316 (pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+) at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. She takes on defending champion Peña (13-5 MMA, 8-3 UFC) in a five-round UFC women’s bantamweight championship fight.
