Overview
- American Top Team shared the first major visual update of Kayla Harrison’s recovery, posting a photo of her neck scar.
- Her neck surgery forced the bantamweight champion to withdraw from the UFC 324 co-main event against Amanda Nunes in Las Vegas.
- Manager Ali Abdelaziz says imaging led to a disc replacement and that Harrison had endured a decade of pain with roughly 20% power in her arm.
- There is no set timetable for a return, though Dana White has said the promotion intends to remake Harrison vs. Nunes later this year.
- Amanda Nunes has signaled she will only return for the undisputed bantamweight title, rejecting interim-belt scenarios.
