“Amanda is an incredible fighter and has achieved tremendous success in our sport. Many people condemn her decision to retire, but I want to say that you have no right to judge a fighter who has done so much.
I think she didn’t win our second fight. Victory was mine. Many people agree with me. Perhaps when Amanda rests and recharges, I'll still be here. Perhaps we will have a chance to meet again,” MMA Junkie quotes Shevchenko.
Let us remind you that on the night of September 17, Shevchenko will try to regain the belt in a duel with Alexa Grasso. The rematch will headline UFC Fight Night 227 in Las Vegas.
