Julianna Pena speaks about her mindset ahead of Kayla Harrison fight at UFC 316
Julianna Pena reclaimed the women's UFC bantamweight title by defeating Raquel Pennington via split decision at UFC 307 in October 2024. Months later, as she prepares to defend her title against Kayla Harrison, Pena shared her mindset heading into the fight.
In a recent discussion on The Nathan Doherty Podcast, 'The Venezuelan Vixen' said:
"My head is in a great spot. I feel very comfortable, I feel at peace with this fight. I'm supposed to get knocked out or thrown on my head and lose the fight in three seconds, and she's gonna be the next best thing since the coming of Christ. So, for me, I have nothing to lose and everything to gain. And when they put me in this position of being able to get walked on in less than 10 seconds, that makes me a very dangerous, dangerous woman."
