Alexa Grasso and Valentina Shevchenko will fight in UFC 306 in the co-main event of the night. This fight is going to be legendary because of the tensions already created before the fight. Grasso has fought 20 fights; her record is 16-3-1. On the other side, Shevchenko has more experience than Grasso because she has fought 28 fights and her record is 23-4-1. These fighters also share a history that dates back to UFC 285 and UFC Fight Night 227.
Alexa Grasso Being the Champion
Alexa Grasso is one of the current UFC champions in the Women’s Flyweight division. According to the latest ranking, she is the number one female fighter in the whole UFC. The best quality of her fighting is her stamina.
In 2023, she won the title by submitting Valentina Shevchenko with a neck crank, in the fight. During the beginning of the competition and even in the third round, we could have easily predicted that Valentina was dominating. But Alexa overpowered her by throwing and landing almost 30 more major strikes than she did and getting four takedowns before winning in a submission.
Second Encounter
The rematch between Grasso and Shevchenko took place in September 2023, at UFC Fight Night 227. Some of the fans even considered this an opportunity for Shevchenko to reclaim her lost title and eventually reclaim the lost ground. She used her legs to prevent Grasso from coming near her, and she executed that perfectly.
The fight was indeed an intense one and was pretty much a back-and-forth battle, with both fighters getting their respective share of good moments. The judges were given time to choose the winner between them wisely, but they weren’t able to choose the winner between each of them because both performed extraordinarily well against each other. The result didn’t go in favor of anyone, and the match was a draw, and this is the only draw in the professional careers of both fighters.
Final Results
As we saw a sudden great improvement in the movements and striking of Shevchenko in the last encounter, it is expected that she’ll do the same in this fight and will be able to restore her lost fight. She knows that Grasso is not someone to be taken lightly, and because of that attitude, our winner is going to be Valentina Shevchenko.
