    I would love to see her fight Weili. I'm not too sure if the weight is too far apart, but I would love to see that match-up

    • @FatherFirst
      @FatherFirst ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Weili would have to come up to 125. I'm sure Valentina can get down to 115, but I don't think she would be willing to. She's more likely to move up to 135. She doesn't like heavy weight cuts that sap her of her greatest attributes in speed and power with her ability to chain combos and grapple when necessary. I do agree though, that would be a fun fight to watch. Valentina is by far my favorite female fighter. This girl Erin Blanchfield looks to be the real deal though and that's a fight in interested in watching as well after Valentina wins on Saturday. Her winning is already a forgone conclusion at this point. Lol. Though her last fight was a super tough fight and very competitive. I think that she is going to be extremely motivated to make a statement this weekend.

    • @DarkJediFarkas
      @DarkJediFarkas ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​​@@FatherFirst She does not like cutting weight, she cuts no weight to 125 at all, her Walk weight is 133 that less then most Strawweights. She wants to eat whatever she wants, so she can be the only person who eats much and does not need to worry of her weigh in, she is always under max weight. I think the fight against Taila was good for her, she wanted that Challenge, if not she could have keep it standing. She wants to improve, i agree with you she will make a Statement.

      It's not about women "not wanting to date men that could kill them", it's about the similarity in life style. If you are constantly grinding, drilling and working out, a person that his type of focus and obsession factor automatically feels more relatable and in turn attractive. Ironically porn stars marry and date each other for the same reasons hahaha.

    Nope, 125 isn't the most exciting weight class. It's delusional as hell. Fights by 115 are the most exciting of them all & 115 is the face of wmma UFC. The top 10 of 115 are all great & always bring exciting competitive fights, except Rose vs Carla 2.0. only the top 5 of 125 are good but not as great as 115
