I don’t enjoy the idea of her fighting Shevchenko now when the latter finally has some legitimate opposition. 125 was held hostage by the trilogy, TUF, and is full of great contenders (Manon, winner of Blanchfield/Rose, Barber, Natalia Silva). Fiorot should have had her titleshot like three times by now

It definitely messes up both SW & FLW so that sucks. More for FLW since Fiorot has undeniably earned her title shot. On the other hand if they are ever going to do Shevchenko vs Zhang it pretty much has to be now. Both fighters are getting to that age where they can get beat, decline etc and be out of title contention forever. Also it's been nearly 6 years since the last (and only) female champion vs champion fight (Cyborg vs Nunes) so it would feel like a big deal if it happens.

SW makes sense since Virna and Suarez are fighting. Maybe they will do Silva Fiorot in the mean time if they can put this together in December.

I hope she fights soon, but don't want her to tie up divisions fighting another champ

I think Zhang might be the better grappler out of those two. I am interested in what route Valentina takes. I don't think Zhang can just run through her easily.

Who else could it be besides Valentina? Suarez is scheduled versus Virna already.

The UFC is going to China in November.
Don’t be surprised if Weili vs Shevchenko headlines

Massive Weili fan.
But Val beats her. Weili's boxing is a weakness, and Val is way longer.
Val could be better everywhere, and she's def bigger.

Except she ducked that fade. When she beat the #1 ranked a couple years ago so then she became the #1 contender they asked her in the octagon what she wanted next so she could call out the champ and instead she was like "idk I wanna fight somebody else first"
You could see by the way she hesitated to answer it and her body language she didn't want that with Shevchenko
And it seems she was hoping and waiting for somebody else to beat Valentina somehow because as soon as Alexa got that fluke win out of suffen Manon appears in the picture asking for a TS
