Valentina Shevchenko urges UFC to sign Rizin champion Rajabali Shaidullaev

Former UFC champion Valentina Shevchenko has called on the UFC to sign Rizin featherweight champion Rajabali Shaidullaev. Shaidullaev is 25 years old and holds an undefeated professional record of 19-0, competing at 66 kilograms (approximately 145 pounds). The post expresses support for Shevchenko's suggestion that the UFC should recruit the young champion. Shaidullaev's perfect record and championship status in a major Asian promotion make him an attractive prospect. No indication was given whether the UFC has shown interest in signing Shaidullaev or if negotiations are underway.
