Valentina Shevchenko isn’t vibing with Alexa Grasso’s take on what she needs to do in order to regain the women’s flyweight title at UFC 306.
Ahead of the first women’s trilogy fight in company history at Noche UFC on Sept. 14 at Sphere in Las Vegas (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPNews), reigning champion Grasso (16-3-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) told MMA Junkie that she thinks Shevchenko (23-4-1 MMA, 12-3-1 UFC) “waits too much” when fighting and needs to compete with some aggression when they meet for the third consecutive time.
Shevchenko found that analysis nothing short of amusing.
