Valentina Shevchenko doesn’t have any defined focus on hanging up the gloves and has a line of logic behind why she approaches her combat sports efforts in that way. This was mentioned during an interview that the reigning UFC flyweight champion did on The Ariel Helwani Show following her most recent title defense. Shevchenko put on a dominant showing against former strawweight champion Zhang Weili in the co-main event of UFC 322 and shut out the dominant Chinese combatant.
The legacy of the multi-time titleholder at 125 pounds is already galvanized, but that being said, ‘Bullet’ isn’t looking to close off her career and frame her residual legacy in a certain way.
