Former bantamweight title challenger Valentina ‘The Bullet’ Shevchenko was supposed to fight for the women’s flyweight title against former champ Nicco Montano at UFC 228 in Dallas, Texas two weeks ago.
However the bitter happened as Montano suffered some health issues and had to be transported to the hospital with immediate effect and the fight was off the card. Obviously, the ‘bullets’ weren’t fired inside the octagon however they were showcased in an old school ranch in Texas.
Shevchenko did attend the event and spent the rest of her time in a photoshoot flaunting her inner cowgirl. Shevchenko alongwith her huge skill set is also known for being glamorous and beautiful. This time around, she did not disappoint as well and fired some bullets straight into a MMA fans’ heart. (via Instagram):
With Montano being stripped of the title, Shevchenko is slated to take on a familiar face, former strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk in what would be a slugfest at UFC 231 on December 9.
