Meanwhile, UFC veteran Daniel Cormier recently shared his thoughts on Valentina Shevchenko’s flyweight title loss to Alexa Grasso and believes that ‘Bullet’ should reconsider asking for an immediate rematch.
Cormier uploaded a video to his YouTube channel where he recapped UFC 285 and analyzed the women’s flyweight title fight between Shevchenko and Grasso, which ended in an upset. He mentioned that the former champion should “re-visit” a rematch rather than pursuing it immediately:
“The former champ [Valentina Shevchenko] does want a rematch and she is entitled to that with 8 title defenses. But the question does become does Valentina really want it? Or maybe, maybe she should reassess and then re-visit this matchup later? Because I think that every time they match up, it’s a very tough fight for the former champion.”
‘DC’ also brought up that he was shocked when he found out that Grasso was training for the exact situation that led to her winning the fight. He praised her for being committed to the game plan that saw her submit Shevchenko, saying:
“I thought, ‘Oh, humbug, sure, you guys have so much foresight?’ And then a video comes out of her in the back doing it. I was talking to Javier Mendez, and he was like, ‘To have the b**ls to be training that, preparing for a unique attack like that, tells you how locked in Alexa and her team were for the fight.'”
