LAS VEGAS – UFC women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko has two names in mind for her next fight. Shevchenko (23-3 MMA, 12-2 UFC), who notched her seventh title defense in a close decision win over Taila Santos in June at UFC 275, sees Alexa Grasso and Manon Fiorot as possible next opponents. Both Grasso (15-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) and Fiorot (10-1 MMA, 5-0 UFC) are on solid winning streaks, with Fiorot unbeaten in the octagon. “I would consider two names: It’s Alexa Grasso and Fiorot,” Shevchenko told MMA Junkie on the World MMA Awards red carpet. “These are two challengers that are extremely good and ready for this title test. I think any of them.” The other option out there for Shevchenko is a trilogy bout with featherweight and bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes, who holds two wins over her – one by split decision at UFC 215 , which Shevchenko thought she won.
