“Mario Yamasaki said he gave her the opportunity to, ‘Be a warrior`. That’s what he said. That was his take on it. I mean, not just beat up. Did you see the stats? The actual physical striking stats? It was some unbelievably overwhelming number, like one vs. several hundred, in the significant strike department. Like literally, she landed one decent punch.
They should have stopped that fight a long time ago. That fight should have been stopped 15 or 20 times.
It was a bad matchup, because that girl, I believe it was her UFC debut. To have a UFC debut, to have a woman that’s fought for the title and is a world-class striker, I mean literally one of the very-best strikers on the planet earth – male or female – it’s just not fair.
Valentina is one of the most well-rounded women in the sport. She subbed Julianna Pena off her back, she stands up and out-strikes Holly Holm. She went toe-to-toe with Amanda Nunes, she went toe-to-toe with some of the best kickboxers in the world. She’s a world champion muay Thai fighter. She’s just a fucking beast. She’s an all-around just bad-ass fighter.”
