Attempting to land a second straight career win against former flyweight queen, Valentina Shevchenko this weekend at Noche UFC, pound-for-pound number one, Alexa Grasso admits it will prove to be a “big challenge” to defeat the Kyrgyzstan native again.
Grasso, the current undisputed flyweight champion, is slated to headline Noche UFC this weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada – attempting to successfully defend her flyweight crown at the first time of trying in an immediate title rematch with Shevchenko.
Landing a huge upset victory over the dominant gold holder back in March at UFC 285 in a co-main event slot, Mexican favorite, Grasso rallied to dispatch Shevchenko with a fourth round neck crank submission win.
