Prediction

Joshua Cook
Who will win: Grasso or Shevchenko?

Valentina "Bullet" Shevchenko is one of the most well-rounded fighters in women's MMA, with a background in Muay Thai and Judo. Her ability to adapt in the octagon and her precise striking have been key to her long-standing success. As she faces Alexa Grasso for the third time, her experience might give her the edge.

Alexa Grasso has shown remarkable improvement in her recent fights. Her striking has become more precise, and her grappling has improved significantly. Grasso has proven that she can compete at the highest level, but against a fighter like Shevchenko, it will be a tough challenge. I believe Valentina Shevchenko will win by unanimous decision.
