Joselyne Edwards could step in for Kayla Harrison or Amanda
\nNunes in the UFC 334 bantamweight title fight<\/h2>\n

According to Guilherme Cruz<\/a>, Edwards (18-6) will weigh in as a
\npotential replacement should Harrison or Nunes be unable to
\ncompete.<\/p>\n

The Panamanian has won five consecutive fights, including four by
\nstoppage, most recently defeating Norma
\nDumont<\/a> by unanimous decision. She went 4-4 in her first eight
\nUFC appearances before starting her current streak.<\/p>\n

Nunes retired in 2023 before arranging a comeback against former
\n
\nAmerican Top Team<\/a> teammate Harrison at
\nUFC 324<\/a> in January. The bout was postponed after Harrison
\nsuffered a neck injury that required surgery.<\/p>\n

Joselyne
\nEdwards<\/a> will be the backup fighter for Kayla
\nHarrison<\/a> vs. Amanda
\nNunes<\/a> at UFC 334, sources told myself and @DamonMartin
