What is Valentina Shevchenko’s payout at UFC 315?

The women’s flyweight belt will be on the line this weekend as Valentina Shevchenko will take on French hotshot Manon Fiorot. As both the fighters prepare for the ultimate showdown, let us have a closer look at what the UFC might pay these fighters. The Kyrgyz fighter has been one of the most accomplished fighters within the MMA realm. After going to war with Amanda Nunes and coming up short in her quest for bantamweight gold, she swiftly dropped to 125 lbs when the division was created, defeating Joanna Jedrzejczyk to claim the flyweight title back in 2018.

‘Bullet’ defended her title seven times in the women’s flyweight division, making her the only female fighter to do so in that weight class. Her back-to-back victories in the women’s flyweight division have significantly increased her payout within the UFC. For her last battle against Alexa Grasso, the Kyrgyz fighter reportedly earned a massive $1 million as her payout. So, what about her fight against Fiorot? Well, if the reports stand true, then the fighter will be earning around $1.2 million- $1.5 million.

It must be noted that her payout includes both her guaranteed pay and the pay-per-view (PPV) points she will receive as one of the two champions on the card. Now that we know about Shevchenko’s payouts, let us have a look her opponents.
