Valentina Shevchenko, the UFC Flyweight Champion, dominated Zhang Weili at UFC 322 to win a unanimous decision, 50-45, 50-45, 50-45, as you can see how the fight played out live.

Shevchenko regained her flyweight belt with a win over Alexa Grasso in their trilogy bout at UFC 306. She then made a successful defense, with a victory over Manon Fiorot at UFC 315. Meanwhile, Weili moved up from strawweight , where was the champion. Zhang defended her 115-pound title against Tatiana Suarez at UFC 312 in February, but she could not win a second belt.
