UFC 315 Recap:

Date: Sunday, May 11
Winner: Valentina Shevchenko (Record: 25-4-1)
Result: Unanimous Decision

Main Points:

• 🥊 Technical Dominance: Shevchenko controlled the pace with precise counterstriking and superior octagon control. Her spinning back kicks and sharp left counters consistently disrupted Fiorot’s rhythm.

• ⚠️ Fiorot’s Mistakes: Manon struggled with distance management and often overcommitted on strikes, leaving her open to counters. She attempted multiple takedowns but lacked setup, which Valentina stuffed easily.

• 🧠 Fight IQ Edge: Valentina used her experience to conserve energy, exploit angles, and stay calm under pressure — especially in the final round where Fiorot tried to rally.

• 🛡️ Defense Wins Rounds: Fiorot landed fewer significant shots, and Shevchenko’s head movement and footwork helped avoid major damage.

Highlight Move:
✅ Round 3, Spinning Body Kick — Valentina landed a clean spinning kick to the midsection, slowing Fiorot and taking control of the momentum.
