Former UFC women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko is enjoying the outdoors before she steps back in the cage to avenge her loss.
Back in March, Shevchenko suffered a stunning upset loss to Mexican Alexa Grasso at UFC 285.

After the fight, Shevchenko demanded a rematch because she felt she was winning the fight before she got submitted by Grasso.
“Definitely an immediate rematch, because I know I was winning the fight,”
“This is kind of like what happens in mixed martial arts,” said Shevchenko. “You’re winning the fight all around, all three rounds, no doubt. And a stupid situation can change the whole game.
“This is the part of the game. Congratulations to Alexa, and I know that I’m stronger and if not this spinning kick, [it] would be a different result.”
Valentina is currently enjoying some time off by going bow fishing out in Las Vegas.
