Alexa Grasso won’t be deterred after suffering her second-straight loss at UFC 315.
Former UFC flyweight champion Grasso (16-5-1 MMA, 8-5-1 UFC) was shut out by rising contender Natalia Silva (19-5-1 MMA, 7-0 UFC) in a unanimous decision loss on Saturday’s main card at Bell Centre in Montreal.
Grasso took to Instagram to reflect on the loss.
“Sometimes you put a ch¡ng@ on someone and sometimes they put it on you 👻 I got a very good opponent!I love this sport because that’s how life is, right?You lose a battle but not the war ⚔️I’m good, I’ll heal my wounds, I’ll return to training and keep giving it my all because I’m NEVER giving up 🔥🦾Thank you for your messages and for all the love you send me, believe me it fills me with energy ⚡I love them with my whole heart 🫶🏻”
Prior to this setback, Grasso lost her flyweight title to Valentina Shevchenko in their trilogy bout at UFC 306 in September. She dethroned Shevchenko at UFC 285 by submission, then retained her title in a split draw at the first Noche UFC in 2023.
