UFC 300 star Kayla Harrison looked completely UNRECOGNISABLE as she completed her first-ever cut down to bantamweight.

Harrison will be welcomed to the octagon by former 135lbs queen Holly Holm, who will be looking to use her as a stepping stone to a title shot.

The former PFL star underwent the biggest weight cut of her career this week to make the non-title-fight bantamweight limit of 136lbs.

And she looked completely unrecognisable to the fighter who turned up to Sin City earlier this week as she made weight.

The judoka looked a shell of her usual self as she’d sucked all the water out of her body.

Her normally huge muscles looked flat and thin, as did her face – which was incredibly gaunt.

MMA and UFC fans around the world were quick to react to Harrison’s gruelling weight cut, with one saying: “That looked painful.”

Another said: “So unhealthy.”

And another said: “Looks on death’s door.”

One remarked: “This must have been a difficult cut.”

Another chimed in: “Glad she was able make the weight, but don’t have a clue how she’s gonna keep making 135 in future.”

Despite never having cut down to bantamweight, Harrison was adamant her weight cut would go off without a hitch.

During the UFC 300 media day, she said: “My weight is good, everything is dialled in,” a cool, calm and confident Harrison said.

“I have a superb team behind me – Eric Pena and the UFC PI have helping out.

“My chef and nutritionist Dara has been making ridiculously delicious meals.

“I’ve been disciplined, I’ve been dedicated and it’s going to show [on the scales].”
