Weili Zhang and Alexa Grasso agreed to a possible confrontation between champion and champion at UFC 300.
UFC 300 is approaching and many big names are eager to compete in this historic event. There have been many rumors about who will be promoted, but this card will see the first major title fight.
It’s been an unforgettable year for Alexa Grasso, who won the UFC Championship with a stellar performance over Valentina Shevchenko in March. The newly crowned world champion regained the flyweight title with a controversial draw on the judges list in an instant rematch with “Bullet.”
It seems difficult for Grasso to get a bigger fight than the one he had against Shevchenko, but he could have done it. In a social media post, strawweight queen Weili Zhang asked about the possibility of a champion vs. champion fight at UFC 300, something the Mexican fighter is looking forward to.
This will be Weili Zhang’s first fight since her dominant victory over Amanda Lemos at UFC 292 in September. If her move to flyweight is successful, the Chinese superstar will join a very exclusive list of UFC legends who have held titles in two different weight classes simultaneously.
