Valentina Shevchenko of Kyrgyzstan took an upset win over Holly Holm at a UFC event in Chicago, defeating the former bantamweight champ by unanimous decision.

Holm, who defeated Ronda Rousey to win that title last year, was in her first fight since losing the title to Miesha Tate at UFC 196.

After the win, Shevchenko will now no doubt be hoping to get a chance to take on Amanda Nunes, who recently took the bantamweight title from Tate at UFC 200.
