Kayla Harrison, comedian Che Durena

Jim and Matt use today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered to welcome on a pair of first-time callers in UFC women’s bantamweight Kayla Harrison and comedian Che Durena.

 

Shortly after the show begins, Harrison candidly reflects on her judo beginnings and how the ups and downs of her earliest days in the sport helped shape her into the woman she is today. Later on, Kayla hilariously forgives Matt as he admits to mistakenly picking against the two-time Olympic gold medalist in her UFC debut against Holly Holm at UFC 300.

 

When Che Durena calls in, the comedian and UFC diehard looks back at his early days in stand-up performing in front of tourists in Cancún and how stitching together his own reactions to assorted clips on social media helped him make a name for himself as a comedian during the pandemic.
