Watch Michael Bisping give his predictions for the UFC 266 card below:
Valentina Shevchenko is understandably a massive betting favorite for her fight against Murphy. ‘Bullet’ is the current UFC women’s flyweight champion and hasn’t lost a single fight at 125 pounds. Shevchenko is also riding a seven-fight win streak into her sixth title defense.
Meanhile, Lauren Murphy’s five-fight win streak has granted her the opportunity to fight for the title at UFC 266. Despite her form, Murphy instantly became a heavy underdog in the betting markets as soon as the fight was announced.
Valentina Shevchenko believes the trilogy fight against Amanda Nunes will happen at some point.
Valentina Shevchenko believes she will face Amanda Nunes in a trilogy fight at some point in the future. Shevchenko has only two losses in the UFC, both of which came against arguably the best female fighter of all time, Amanda Nunes.
The Brazilian dominated and outworked Shevchenko in their first bout at UFC 196 and won via a unanimous decision. The flyweight queen then challenged the ‘Lioness’ for her women’s bantamweight title at UFC 215. ‘Bullet’ gave Nunes a tougher time in the octagon but lost via a split decision.
