The co-main event of UFC 270 will see men’s flyweight champion Brandon Moreno fight Deiveson Figueiredo to defend his title. Ahead of this trilogy fight, many fans and celebrities have given their predictions and also expressed support for their favorite fighter. Women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko is one of them.

‘Bullet’ posted a picture with the Mexican champion and wrote, “Come on Brandon! All the strength for your belt defense!” (Translated via Google.)

Shevchenko and Moreno have also trained together frequently. Hence, ‘Bullet’ showed her support for the Mexican-born fighter.

‘The Assassin Baby’ faced a draw in his first clash with the Brazilian. Later, in their rematch at UFC 263, he showed stunning improvements and submitted ‘Deus da Guerra’ in the third round to become the first-ever Mexican-born UFC champion.

Meanwhile, ‘Bullet’ recently defended her UFC gold strap for the sixth time in a row. A few months later, she rose to the number one position on the women’s pound-for-pound roster.

Previously, former UFC double champion Amanda Nunes sat atop the pound-for-pound rankings. However, she recently faced a devastating loss in her bantamweight title defense against Julianna Pena. This loss brought her down to the number two position on the roster.

Meanwhile, ‘Bullet’, undefeated since 2017, now stands at the number one position on the roster. As Shevchenko has defeated almost every fighter in her division, many consider her as one of the greatest female fighters of all time. However, she has two losses in the UFC, both against Nunes.
