Amanda Nunes and Kayla Harrison face off Saturday at Madison Square Garden for the UFC bantamweight title, closing a rivalry born from their time as teammates at American Top Team. Nunes has long suspected Harrison joined the gym in 2018 specifically to target her, while Harrison insists she simply wanted a training partner. The fight marks Nunes's return from a 2023 retirement and Harrison's first defense after winning the belt in June.
