Sijara Eubanks Wants Winner of Nicco Montano vs. Valentina Shevchenko Title Bout

Following her win at last night’s UFC Fight Night 131 event, Sijara Eubanks is calling for the Nicco Montano vs. Valentina Shevchenko title bout winner when speaking to MMA Junkie

“I feel like I’m next in line. I know the whole talk is that Nicco and Valentina are going to be the next matchup, but I really think that – I knew the winner of me and Lauren was going to get the winner of Nicco and Valentina. So I figured I was going to win tonight. I won, and I figured that’s next. But I really want to get back to the gym, because it’s off camp that you have the most improvement. I thought I dominated all three rounds. I wanted to finish, but who doesn’t want to finish their fights? Everyone wants a submission or a knockout. You just want to prove that you’re even more dominant than that. I feel like I controlled the whole fight from front to back, so I’m happy with it.”
