Prior to the 2022 PFL Championships, Larissa Pacheco had yet to win a round against Kayla Harrison in two previous losses.
Not only did she win a round Friday, she won three of them and claimed the women’s lightweight title by 48-47 unanimous decision scores from all three judges at Hulu Theatre at Madison Square Garden in New York. When presented with the idea that she had a rivalry going with Pacheco, Harrison dismissed it during the pre-event press conference. And now with the result, it very well could be the 2022 Upset of the Year.
Harrison, who was previously undefeated, talked big before the fight about facing the likes of Cris Cyborg (perhaps next year) and some day Amanda Nunes once her PFL contract was up. Now the loss to Pacheco could change things. So does this end up being a good or bad thing – for both Harrison and the PFL?
