Valentina Shevchenko and Katlyn Chookagian came on Bowks Talking Bouts to discuss their upcoming flyweight title fight in the co-main event of UFC 247.
During this conference call conversation, I spoke with Shevchenko about whether pundits/ fans are overlooking this flyweight title defense with all of these pound for pound matchups for her (Zhang, Nunes, etc). She also spoke about what Chookagian brings to the table that separates her from prior opponents on a skillset level.
Chookagian discussed whether the Liz Carmouche firing controversy puts any level of pressure on her as far as how she performs in a fight. She also spoke about what she brings to the table that separates her from prior opponents of Shevchenko.
