Alexa Grasso, the UFC flyweight, is set to compete against Natalia Silva at UFC 315 in Montreal, marking her first matchup since 2022 against Valentina Shevchenko. Grasso recognizes Silva's taekwondo skills, which will provide a fresh challenge compared to her previous fights. Grasso remains focused on improving her game rather than engaging in trash talk, emphasizing her appreciation for the sport and its athletes. With Shevchenko defending her title in a co-main event, Grasso confidently believes she wonât need to step in if circumstances change during that fight.
"It's a great challenge. She's background with taekwondo. She kicks a lot and she moves a lot," Grasso told reporters including Cageside Press on Wednesday.
"I like to watch all the flyweights, I watch all women's fights, but specially the ones that are in weight class. I like to watch each one of them. You never know who you're going face next."
