Erin Blanchfield passed her biggest test with flying colors and submitted Jessica Andrade in the second round of the UFC Vegas 69 main event on Saturday at the UFC APEX. Following the win, Blanchfield called out the winner of the UFC 285 title fight between Valentina Shevchenko and Alesa Grasso. Blanchfield will be the longest-serving champ’s most difficult challenge if Shevchenko wins.
MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck, Jose Youngs, and Jed Meshew react to Blanchfield’s massive victory against the dangerous Andrade, and discuss the chances “Cold Blooded” would have against Shevchenko. Additionally, they discuss the strange performance of William Knight in his unanimous decision loss to Marcin Prachnio, Alexander Hernandez’s decision win over Jim Miller, Evan Elder’s tough luck being up 20-18 on all three scorecards against Nazim Sadykhov before a cut forced the fight to be called in the third round, and more.
