UFC head Dana White said that a trilogy between the promotion's women's flyweight champion Alexa Grasso and former title holder Valentina Shevchenko will still be completed.

“We will have to have a rematch. We will do this, it will be right. This is a fight that has to happen,” White said at a press conference.

Let us remind you that last weekend at the UFC Fight Night 227 tournament, Shevchenko and Grasso were unable to identify the strongest - the fight ended in a draw by a split decision of the judges. In the first meeting of these athletes, which took place in March, the Mexican won by submission.
