The co-main event at UFC 315 in Montreal this weekend will see Valentina Shevchenko taking on Manon Fiorot in her first flyweight title defence. ‘Bullet’ has a professional record of 24-4-1, while the Beast is 12-1-0. Let’s get into the match prediction.

Valentina Shevchenko is back at the top of the flyweight division after two years of battling Alexa Grasso, who she beat for the title at UFC 306 in dominant fashion. 

A major contributor to Bullet’s success is her excellent grappling skills, which were evident against Grasso in her last fight, and that result took her to 10-1-1 in the flyweight division. 

Shevchenko has risen to the top with her ability to control the pace and distance of fights, and her experience and fight IQ are undoubtedly massive advantages in this bout. 

Meanwhile, Manon Fiorot has been surging to prominence over the past few years and enters this match following a unanimous decision victory over Erin Blanchfield in March last year.

That victory was her seventh in a row in the UFC, and it also further proved her ability to go the distance, as that was also her fifth fight in succession that went to the judge's scorecard. 

The Beast’s resilience in the Octagon has been a key factor in her rise, while she also delivers aggressive striking, which throws opponents off and wears them down - things she will need to emulate in this match.
