UFC 315's joint home event features a women's lightweight championship battle between two Southpaw strikers.
Shevchenko, with more SouthPaw sample sizes, officially stood 2-1 opposite the left-handed at the UFC level.
Shevchenko instilled martial arts through her family, and has been a practitioner of combat sports since she was 4 years old, amassing multiple championships in K-1 and IFMA (same group she fought with and defeated Joanna Jedrzejczyk three times).
Shevchenko is essentially an anti-fighter, wielding all weapons from the check hook to the trigger, wielding all weapons from the check hook. Whenever someone tries to move toward the weak side of the championship, she provides the answer in the form of a spin attack that is fully paired with liver kicks to help keep opponents against.
I suspect Shevchenko will face Southpaw's companion, but Shevchenko will lean more on jabs and leg kicking power, but she needs to pay attention to the way the hook and cross comes back.
Figorot Manon Inter.
Fiorot has embodied most of the sports related to sports karate since he was seven years old.
Fiorot kept nearly the same attitude when fighting left-handed, throwing out many weapons that Southpaws would never leave their home. Whether it was Fiorot's change between pokes and hooks or Thai kicks to the side, the French fighter seemed to keep the decent flow of her offensive output.
Although he sometimes tends to heak nose, Fiorot kicks the said side on the legs and body to stop the opponent's progress. But I'm not sure how much money will be kicked given the imminent threat of struggle presented by Shevchenko.
As the previous section suggests, Shevchenko has the trick to hit the ball in an opposing manner and may show up in a closed place.
As we have seen in our past Shevchenko fights, fighters that join the championship tend to take root accordingly β especially when trying to do that from the championship.
Shevchenko is no longer underestimated in this space and has all the tools you have for Muay Thai practitioners. Not only did Shevchenko waving her elbows to rest, but Kyrgyzstan also better pulled her out of this weight-level fence.
In addition to not being shy about incorporating championship throws and throws in the Muay Thai era, Shevchenko has developed the taste of the average change landing of MMA (at least since at least late in the championship game). Even if wrestling may not be the most suitable adjustment, Shevchenko seems to be able to make it a top choice as long as she wants to get someone back.
She did have the best time on the floor with Grasso in this series in the first fight, scoring well on the third round from the rear mount to the position of the crucifix.
However, in UFC, it is easier to say something meaningfully put on Fiorot.
Although her defensive quota showed a statistical drop in recent battles, Fiorot showed a good understanding of hooking and footing.
Fiorot prefers strong whips, which can open hips and/or individual grips when defending an opponent's shooting. Whizzer is also a great tool, which allows the highly resilient Fiorot to rush the semi-complete shot back to his feet, which will most likely come in handy with a willingness like Shevchenko to give up the threat.
Fiorot also showed a hard effort to score himself even if they weren't in their brightest times.
In Fiorot's defense, she shows some repairable struggles in the short sections we see in the Octagon. Either way, I hope someone like Shevchenko can further test the ground skills of French fighters.
Odds manufacturers and the public have some preference for challengers, listing Fiorot -124 and Shevchenko +102 through Fanduel.
I know that MMA gamblers love to fade into aging fighters, they think they are at an advanced stage of their careers, but itβs hard for me to prove that faith in Fiorot is my favorite.
Sure, Shevchenko may have some dubious trends to fight low-scale battles she tends to participate in, but in my eyes she is still a more skilled, more skilled product.
Grasso was able to score with Southpaw vs. Southpaw dynamics early in their series, so scored, so scored, and thus won some big moments. That said, in the battle with Grasso, Shevchenko quietly got better, steadily showing an on-premium, mature Southpaw Arsenal.
Fiorot broke out on the scene with a large number of phenomena, but as the competition became more and more difficult, Fiorot returned to Earth.
Of course, technically, Fiorot might succeed in a 25-minute showcase, but she still showed a suspicious gas tank with poor decision making.
Not only is Fiorot accustomed to risking hitting to relieve stress, she also seems to blend hardwiring with her many resets - I think that has the potential to cost her, and she might be looking for a superior fighter that might be looking for.
I didn't expect the fight to be beautiful or fun, but I do hope Shevchenko can use her jab, counterattack and wrestling abilities to decide the terms of this match. Even though given the kicking ability that can be kicked, I will stay energetic throughout the whole process until the kick, I will formally choose Shevchenko to stick with and block myself from winning on the scorecard.
