Valentina Shevchenko extended her winning streak Saturday at UFC 275, defeating Taila Santos in a flyweight championship bout that went the distance and ultimately ended with the champ retaining her title.
“My goal was to find a way to get that victory,” says Shevchenko (23–3), who won by split decision. “That defines a champion. I never give up, no matter what I am up against.”
