What happened: On Ariel Helwani Show, Ariel Helwani said Kayla Harrison discussed recovering from neck surgery and confronting the possibility of not fighting again. Helwani said Harrison returns to action at UFC 334 on Nov. 14 at Madison Square Garden against Amanda Nunes.

Why it matters: The bout decides the UFC women's bantamweight title and headlines the promotion's return to New York. A Harrison win cements an Olympic-to-MMA title arc spanning PFL and UFC. A Nunes win restores a former champion atop the division.

What to watch: Watch for Harrison's medical clearance status and fight-week buildup toward the Nov. 14 card.
