UFC women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko<\/a> is confident that the trilogy fight against her rival Amanda Nunes will happen one day.<\/p>\n

The calls for a trilogy between Shevchenko and Nunes are high after “Bullet” ran through Jessica Andrade in her last outing at UFC 261. Since moving down to flyweight, Shevchenko is a perfect 7-0, with a 6-0 record in flyweight title fights. The UFC is having trouble finding opponents for Shevchenko as she has been blowing everyone she fights out of the water. The only trouble she has ever had in her UFC career was against Nunes, and thus fans want to see them fight again. The two rivals previously met in 2016 and 2017, with Nunes winning a unanimous decision at UFC 196 and a split decision at UFC 215.<\/p>\n

With Shevchenko running through the competition at 125lbs and Nunes dominating at both 135lbs and 145lbs, the question of the third meeting between these two has come up. Speaking to MMAFighting.com’s Damon Martin<\/a>, Shevchenko confirmed that she is interested in fighting Nunes again, though she doesn’t expect it to happen anytime soon.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just feel it\u2019s going to happen. Without putting all this pressure to someone, Ok, let\u2019s do it now. It\u2019s like everything good in a good time. That\u2019s why it\u2019s going to happen, I know for sure. Probably when time is perfect time for this fight. It\u2019s going to happen. It\u2019s like I cannot force someone like OK, let\u2019s go fight me. If someone don\u2019t want to fight, to have this fight, no one can force no one,” Shevchenko said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy I\u2019m feeling like I\u2019m not rushing or doing much of this stuff, I just feel it\u2019s going to happen without extra power. Because as I say every time, if we continue successfully in our own weight class divisions, it\u2019s going to be just only one fight that makes sense.\u201d<\/p>\n
