PFL 6 is taking place on Friday at Atlanta's Overtime Elite Arena. The women's lightweight and welterweight are in action for the second time this year.
Two-time champion Kayla Harrison is returning for her second regular season fight. With 3 points in the standings, she finds herself tied with three others. Harrison will face Kaitlin Young in the main event. Young is fighting for the first time this season and competed on short notice to replace Julia Budd.

Budd was a longtime Bellator MMA member before jumping into the PFL last year. She was a Bellator featherweight champion in her time there and successfully defended her title three times.
Budd's replacement, Kaitlin Young, has a 12-12 Pro MMA record, the last to beat Budd last year by consensus.

Harrison improved her professional mark to 13-0 in PFL 3 on May 6, as she set out for a unanimous victory over Mokhnatkina. The two-time Olympic gold medalist has won all but one of her victories under the PFL banner and has completed 10 of them within a distance.
