Cruises in flawless title defense Shevchenko successfully defended the UFC Women's Flyweight Championship on Saturday, defeating Zhang Weili via unanimous decision (50-45, 50-45, 50-45) at UFC 322 in New York City.

Impact Shevchenko had to really battle to retain her belt in a hard fought fight against Manon Fiorot in May. She had no such issues this evening, dominating from start to finish against an opponent moving up from strawweight. Valentina appeared twice Zhang's size inside the octagon and she used that size and strength to bully her opponent to a hysterical degree. Shevchenko landed five takedowns, racked up 13:24 worth of control time, and finished with a 137-80 edge in terms of total strikes landed. Not one of Zhang's 80 would have been considered noteworthy. It was a complete whitewashing against one of the greatest 115-pounders of all time. Outside of a fluke submission loss to Alexa Grasso, and a split draw against Grasso in which she deserved to win, Valentina seems as dominant as ever at age 37. 28-year-old Brazilian Natalia Silva, who is perfect in seven UFC fights and just took a unanimous decision from Grasso in May, is a near-lock to be next in line.
