Valentina Shevchenko made a successful debut in the UFC flyweight division on Saturday when she defeated promotional newcomer Priscila Cachoeira at UFC Fight Night 125.
Following a title-fight loss to bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes in September, Shevchenko (15-3 MMA, 4-2 UFC) dropped to 125 pounds and soundly beat down Cachoeira (8-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) before a second-round submission in the FS1-televised bout at Mangueirinho Gymnasium in Belem, Pera, Brazil.
