“If they both come to me and they both want to do this, I will make it happen. But it’s not something I’m thinking about,” Dana said.

When asked about the possibility of Valentina returning to bantamweight (up to 61,2 kg), the 'boss' was also not excited about the idea and stated that there will always be a new fighter to challenge 'Bullet' in the flyweight division (up to 56,7kg).

“There will always be someone coming to challenge Shevchenko. It's not Valentina's fault that she's one of the baddest women of all time. So, making her move up a category doesn't make a lot of sense”, concluded the 'boss'.

The fighter has a record of 21 wins and three losses. The 'Bullet's only two setbacks in Ultimate were to Amanda nunes.
