[autotag]Kayla Harrison[/autotag] made it clear she wanted a second fight before the year ended, and that’s what she’s getting.
Harrison, the 2019 PFL women’s lightweight champion, is set to fight [autotag]Jozette Cotton[/autotag] on Dec. 17 at Titan FC 66 in Miami.
A person with knowledge of the matchup informed MMA Junkie of the booking. ESPN was the first to report the booking Monday.
The fight between Harrison (8-0) and Cotton (8-2), which will be contested at lightweight, is a rematch of an August 2018 matchup. Harrison won by third-round TKO at PFL 6 in just her second professional fight.

Harrison, 30, had been frustrated sitting on the sidelines all year after the PFL canceled its 2020 season earlier this year because of the coronavirus pandemic. But she reached an agreement with the promotion to be able to compete in other promotions before the 2021 season gets underway next April.
Harrison made her return to competition last month at Invicta FC 43 where she battered and bloodied Courtney King, en route to a second-round TKO win to remain undefeated. It was Harrison’s first time competing at 145 pounds.
Cotton, 30, who fights out of Omaha, Neb., hasn’t competed since her loss to Harrison more than two years ago.
