A women’s flyweight title bout is on deck for UFC 275.
MMA Fighting reported on Tuesday that reigning champion Valentina Shevchenko and #5 ranked contender Taila Santos is expected to take place on the June 11th pay-per-view. No location has been confirmed but Ariel Helwani says Singapore is the frontrunner.
Shevchenko (22-3) has a half-dozen title defenses since winning the vacant belt over Joanna Jedrzejczyk back at UFC 231 in December 2018. She has scarcely been challenged in any of her title fights and only Jennifer Maia was able to take a round off of her.
