Since Ronda Rousey changed the sport forever by entering the Octagon and ushering women’s MMA into the mainstream, only a few women have risen to the top of the UFC and gained an air of invincibility. Valentina Shevchenko is among them.

One of the most complete fighters in all of MMA – “Bullet” has superlative striking on the inside and outside of her opponents, a destructive clinch game as a Muay Thai master, and a judo black belt, and if it goes to the ground, she can scramble with the best of them. Since she entered the UFC in 2015, she’s been in some of the most exciting battles, fought some of the toughest women the Octagon has ever hosted, and defeated some of the best to ever do it – all while setting historic records in the flyweight division.

Shevchenko has many Topps cards to choose from over the last decade of her activity, and these are just a sample of some you must collect.
