Although she didn’t lose her title, Alexa Grasso was unable to put the Valentina Shevchenko rivalry to bed last September.
In the inaugural Noche UFC event, Grasso and Shevchenko battled to a split draw in their women’s flyweight championship rematch. It was a 25-minute contest full of ups and downs for both fighters, leaving the MMA world debating who was the rightful winner.
