In an exclusive interview with Telecomasia.net, UFC fighter Antonina Shevchenko expressed her joy over her sister Valentina Shevchenko’s victory against Alexa Grasso in the title fight at UFC 306.
I’m very happy for Valentina. She is the best of the best, and she proved it once again. Valentina achieved a dominant victory, perfectly executing a very smart strategy. Her physical and technical preparation was incredible. And, of course, her unshakeable determination to win. She’s the GOAT (Greatest of All Time).

On September 15 at the MSG Sphere in Las Vegas, USA, Valentina won against Grasso by unanimous decision by relying on her grappling skills.
It is worth recalling that in March 2023, at UFC 285, Grasso defeated Valentina by submission in the fourth round and became the champion of the women’s flyweight division. In September of the same year, they faced each other in a rematch at UFC Fight Night 227, which ended in a draw.
