Jessica Andrade Vows to Expose Valentina Shevchenko’s ‘Weak Points’ at UFC 261

Some six months after an impressive debut in the flyweight division where she defeated former No. 1 contender Katlyn Chookagian by TKO in the first round, ex-strawweight queen Jessica Andrade has earned a title shot against Valentina Shevchenko.

Andrade will enter UFC 261 on Saturday as the underdog against the reigning 125-pound champion. The Brazilian has a clear game plan in mind to dethrone Shevchenko.

Jennifer Maia showed that If you can get a good throw, stabilize and attack with ground-and pound, that is a good way to put her in trouble.
