Valentina Shevchenko Straight Assassin

The complete game down to conditioning and manipulating the opponent’s every action

From seeing the prefight interview you can see how Valentina Shevchenko has honed every aspect of her game. Jessica Eye is extremely tough and The Difference hopes her a healthy and swift recovery. This fight demonstrates that toughness only goes so far. The difference in the way Shevchenko looked was apparent. She tapped into Eye’s primal defenses by a conditioning response to pain from devastating kicks to the body. It looks like her ribs cracked in the replay. Shevchenko ends it with one of the most brutal head-kick knockouts as Eye lowered her arm to protect the body.

Shevchenko’s spoke three languages in her victory speech leading with positive wishes toward the phased challenger still regaining control of her consciousness. Fan’s from her native country Kyrgyzstan were up in arms. Her President was on the phone with her and still, the champion remained humble. She may be one of the best combat sports fighters ever. I would be surprised if she was even afraid of Henry Cejudo the self-proclaimed “Triple C” recently crowned a new two-division champ in the UFC.

Who do you think is the better fighter? A Champ who can adjust in adversity or a champ that just clearly dominates on another level?

The Difference would like to know!
