Shevchenko has laid waste to multiple opponents in the 125-pound weight class during her tenure as the top dog. Additionally, she appears to be in elite shape as her garage will now serve as the primary location to work out.
Chiefly, this trend of setting up home gyms has been consistent across the MMA circuit, especially from undisputed champions in the organization.
Valentina Shevchenko: A brief history
The Kyrgyzstani fighter has formed a legion of loyal fans who have come to expect sheer dominance when the cage door closes behind her.
She has managed to dispatch a host of game title contenders with relative ease. The only obstacle she’s faced in her UFC tenure begins and ends with the consensus GOAT Amanda Nunes.
The two faced off against each other on two separate occasions, with both fights in favor of ‘The Lioness’. Valentina, in the eyes of MMA fans and pundits, was oftentimes the winner.
The razor-thin margin between the two fighters has led many to look at Valentina Shevchenko as one of the best in the sport.
As a champion of the 125-pound division, she is hungry to face-off against fresh-faces and make more statement performances.
With wins over Joanna Jedrzejczyk, Jessica Eye, and Katlyn Chookagian, she has already set up an impregnable fortress of dominance in the division.
