Kayla Harrison withdraws after neck surgery

    Kayla Harrison reportedly withdrew from a scheduled co-main event on Jan. 21 after undergoing neck surgery.

    Her manager, Ali Abdelaziz, said doctors found two herniated discs and advised immediate surgery to avoid possible paralysis.

    The fighter had been treated conservatively before being flown to New York for the operation, and pain reportedly eased after the procedure.

    Amanda Nunes was set to come out of retirement for the matchup, but the pairing is being postponed to a later date.

    Discussions about a reschedule are reportedly underway.
