Who's left for Valentina Shevchenko?

[Flower2dPeople]

Rickson Gracie

He was diagnosed with Parkinson's back in 2021.

Should be a close fight then

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

It’s 125. They can make a title eliminator anytime. She has some name recognition. She just needs to win a fight. Whoever gets Barber next gets a shot

Silva, Barber, AND Jasmine are ahead her, so it'd be hard to see how she gets a shot in 1

Edit* if they did Val vs Weili, then Silva might take another fight. Only way Rose gets a shot in 1, imo, is if she beats #1 Silva so that even if Jasmine beats Barber, which  should have more merit than Rose, Rose could still leapfrog that at least on name value

lmfao why would manon get a rematch

She would get a rematch if she ended up beating two more top contenders. I don’t know why you’re acting like that fight was not close. It was two and two going into the fifth. She is capable of beating Val.

I didn't think it was particularly close. I scored it 49-46 shevchenko and bet on manon.

I actually like manon quite a bit but she demonstrably has nothing for valentina. you may as well have named jennifer maia

Respectfully, official scorecards,Verdict, and MMA decisions I’ll have it as 3 to 2 Valentina. Despite how you scored it, it was a close fight in the eyes of most. The idea that Manon could defeat Val in a rematch not crazy. And should Manon get the necessary win she should be afforded another crack at the title

eh, Fight was less close than any score card can indicate. Much like Max vs Dustin 1.

And sure, manon could EARN another title fight, not saying she can't but the question was who is left for valentina, Valentina already went through her (easily, Imo) recently

Why do you guys keep acting like 125 is still awful lol. I don't think 115 is even better at this point

It’s WMMA. It’s as bad as LHW. It is what it is.

 

[FriskyRandy]

Natalia Silva beats her imo

 

[bjjwar]

Fiorot was the last « threat » in the UFC. There’s only Ditcheva who beat the crap out of the girl that beat Val that would also easily beat Valentina. She already lost twice to Nunes, so there’s no point in that fight either.

She actually only fought 2 great fighters. Nunes and Joanna. Nunes beat her twice and Joanna is much smaller, if you look at the level of competition she fought its actually a mediocre career. Still cant believe she fought Jessica Eye, Carmouche, Lauren Murphy, Cachoeiro, etc.

She beat Holly who was much bigger and better striking. In my opinion that was her best win.

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

let Zhang bang. She's been begging for it. Makes zero sense not to book it. One of the few wmma that would have a chance to draw

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

Lol, I think LHW is worse.

 

[MMAFanCal]

Weilli Zhang needs to come up to 125 lbs. I am 100% sure she can beat Shevchenko. Zhang is an absolute monster the way she dismantled Suarez and her Khamzat-style wrestling. Valentina has been dismissive of Zhang, which makes me think she is trying to duck.

 

[NoSmilez]

Lol, I think LHW is worse.

It’s bad. I always call it the bad kickboxer division. I will admit the WMMA competitors at 115 and 125 might be more well rounded than the LHW men.

 

[jeff7b9]

Goob vs Shevchenko book it.

Wouldn't last a minute..

 

[KO Shotz]

Natalia Silva or weili Zhang would be the obvious options

Love Dakota but she made harder work of Inaba than I was expecting and then announced she's signed a new PFL deal so no chance she fights Val anyway.

Wasn't long before some thirsty mo-fo brought up that dakota chick.
