Kayla Harrison was on hand at the 2025 UFC Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Thursday night in Las Vegas – perhaps a fitting appearance, given she’s about to fight a Hall of Famer. Harrison, the newly crowned UFC women’s bantamweight champion, is set to face women’s GOAT Amanda Nunes at some point in the future.

Following a loss on the Contender Series, and having dropped his LFA lightweight title, JaCobi Jones finds himself on the rebound, having earned his second straight victory at Friday’s LFA 211 in Salamanca, New York.

Maybe it was a bad sign when the entirety of the preliminary card went to decisions, but UFC Baku on Saturday certainly didn’t have much finishing power. Just two fights on the 12-fight card ended inside the distance, taking the wind out of the sails in what was the UFC’s debut in Azerbaijan.
