You know that Shevchenko is actually not really the bigger woman, Joannas natural walk weight is around 140, Valentinas is around 133lbs if she eats what she wants.

@@DarkJediFarkas joanna has a thinner frame than Val. I agree she's better at flyweight but she's not as muscular or stocky as Val is. Valentina could never make 115.

That spinning back kick of Valentina comes out of nowhere, there's literally no way you can tell she's gonna throw it until it hits you.

The size difference definitely played in Valentina's favor, but Joanna went the distance against arguably the best female fighter in the world. I know she has drawn quite some criticism with her "heel character," but Joanna remains one of the most exciting and talented women in the UFC. I hope she'll be able to regain the strawweight belt before she retires.

When Valentina fights you can see the beauty in this game, so well balanced, technique is so sharp, true to her namesake the Bullet. Can't wait to see her go with Amanda again. Same with JJ, her striking and stance is so beautiful. Both are legend status regardless

Grande Valentina!!!! Muchos saludos Sabes que en el Perú siempre te agradecemos por valoramos mucho Eres la mejor 👍👍

Valentina is a videogame character. Every move is executed as if it follows a script in a programm.

JJ at the end just respectful nods in agreement, Valentina is something else.

2 of the best!

Valentina S is predominantly a counter-puncher so her fights can be less exciting when she has an opponent who is not coming after her. Joanna J has always been a non-stop forward-moving aggressor so that made this fight very dynamic. Big respect to JJ for moving UP a wt-class and lasting all 5 rounds. Valentina was moving DOWN a wt-class. A lot of bigger girls could not go 5 rounds with VAL like JJ did here. Lastly, on a personal note, I like that JJ does not have all those crappy tatoos on her body like so many fighters have these days.

4:36 maaan the speed of these two is incredible, I thought my video speed was on 1.25
