Summary
- Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunes will fight for the bantamweight title.
- Nunes is coming out of retirement to face her former training partner.
- Harrison is the favorite to win in their upcoming title bout.
UFC 334 is set to feature one of the most significant women's fights in MMA history, with Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunes scheduled to compete for the women's bantamweight title. This highly anticipated bout was initially planned for January but was postponed due to an injury Harrison sustained, requiring neck surgery.
Kayla Harrison, holding a 19-1 professional MMA record and a 3-0 record in the UFC, will make her first defense of the 135-pound title she claimed from Julianna Peña at UFC 316. Harrison's impressive four-fight winning streak includes notable victories over Aspen Ladd, Holly Holm, and Ketlen Vieira.
Amanda Nunes, a decorated former two-division champion and recent UFC Hall of Fame inductee, is coming out of retirement for this clash. Nunes, with a 23-5 MMA record, last competed in 2023, defending her bantamweight title against Irene Aldana before announcing her retirement. She has expressed intentions for a continued return to active competition.
The event is scheduled for Saturday, November 14, 2026, at Madison Square Garden in New York, and will be broadcast on Paramount+. Betting odds from DraftKings favor Harrison at -198, with Nunes as the +164 underdog.
