The fight's going to be in the women's flyweight category (in the UFC rankings of this division, Fioro's in second place and Shevchenko's the belt holder). Bookies don't think there's a clear winner in this matchup.
Claim Welcome BonusValentina Shevchenko
Shevchenko is one of the most titled athletes in the entire UFC roster. She is the reigning champion of the women's flyweight division and holds the record for the number of UFC title defences by a woman - seven of them. Valentina is an amateur, but won world championships in Thai boxing and kickboxing loads of times. She's also a top fighter. Valentina has been participating in title bouts since 2017, and has loads of experience in five-round fights and battles with top female fighters.
For the last two years, Bullet has been going up against another tough competitor, and it's fair to say it hasn't been plain sailing. In her trilogy with Alexa Grasso, Shevchenko lost the first fight, the second one ended in a draw, and she won the third one, completing the trilogy. In the end, Valentina just got on with it, showing real discipline and staying calm to bag the win.
The match with Manon Fioro will be another tough test for Shevchenko, and the bookies don't see a favorite in this one.
Manon Fiorot
Manon Fioro used to fight for the French national karate team and she made her professional MMA debut in 2018, but sadly she lost her first bout. She learned a lot from that setback, and after that she was really successful, often by knockout. In the UFC, the Frenchwoman isn't as good at knocking out her opponents. In her last five fights, she won by judges' decisions.

Valentina Shevchenko vs Manon Fiorot Fight Prediction 11 May 2025
We can all agree that both fighters are excellent on their feet, but when it comes to the fight, Valentina Shevchenko will have the advantage. So, it's pretty likely that her plan for the fight is going to be to switch up her tactics and then move the fight to the ground after a few exchanges.
When it comes to the arsenal, Bullet's got a more varied set-up too. She's got more experience, and the last fight once again showed that she can fight smart to win.
We're not expecting an early draw here, the judges will have to count the punches, and we reckon they'll favour Shevchenko. But the bookies are still being coy about who they think will win.
