She has won eight of her UFC matches by this method, with her last three matches also being decided by this outcome.</p> <p>Zhang is a two-time UFC Women's Strawweight Champion, but she’s stepping up in weight and facing an accomplished cage fighter in this division. The weight differential may be too much for her, while her last three fights also went the distance.</p> <p>Her only two defeats in the UFC came against Rose Namajunas in 2021, but Shevchenko may be her most difficult challenge since then.</p>
