Valentina Shevchenko, the Kyrgyzstani dynamo who’s been terrorizing the UFC’s flyweight division for years, is back at it again. And this time, she’s not messing around. Two weeks ahead of Noche UFC, she’s turning up the heat in her training camp. The former flyweight queen is on a mission to reclaim her throne and looks determined!
Shevchenko recently dropped a bunch of training photos on Instagram that’ll make fans sweat just looking at them. Talk about dedication! She’s hitting the mats and pads hard for her eventual return to the octagon at UFC 306 against Alexa Grasso.
In one snap, she is seen getting her hands wrapped, with the next one showcasing her fresh off a sparring session, and her face says it all. Another photo shows her taking a breather. But don’t be fooled – even Valentina’s “rest” looks intense. She’s probably planning her next move while catching her breath.
Now, fans might be wondering, “Why all this fuss over training photos?” This woman is considered one of the best in the entire women’s MMA. Her dedication to the sport is nothing short of marvelous. Plus, Valentina Shevchenko doesn’t allow anyone to drink water during training. And anyone who has worked out knows how hard this seemingly innocuous thing is.
