      Because it doesn’t look good when you lose to Nunez twice and Nunez lost to Peña
      EDIT: You guys have misinterpreted my comment lol. Yes, I think Valentina is #1 but the question was "why isn't she bigger" and I explained my rationale, which I think is valid. Yes, Valentina vs Nunez may have been close but to newer fans and casuals they won't know that it was a close fight. They will just see two losses to her. The losses don't look good on paper to the average viewer.

      The problem is, women generally suck at athletics and hand-eye coordination. So, when you find one that's leagues above the rest in those two skills. Then, that woman will likely be reigning. For men, power can make up the lack of skill. Women don't have that.
      And typically with men, none of them are TOO below average in the skills department. So, it creates for a harder duration of reigning. Which just proves why Jon Jones is such a beast.
      But, Valentina's the real deal! Leagues better than the other women.

    She's so ahead of her time. Women haven't been as involved as men in combat sports until recently, so it wasn't long ago where you had pretty novice martial artists competing even at the professional stage for women. It still can get sloppy, but Shevchenko is a true, elite martial artist. Definitely one of my favorite fighters currently.
