Tracy Cortez on a long 10 fight winning streak just cracked the top #15 in the UFC's flyweight division. She received a lot of attention for doing that. Getting 30,000 likes on facebook. The fans are certainly drawn to Cortez. Shevchenko meanwhile is the champion and on top of the division. Cortez would have a long journey to get to where the bullet is today.





How far is the gap between the best and the number 15 position. Is it a closable gap? Champions do come from somewhere and they usually come from exactly where Cortez is today at the bottom of the top 15.

Valentina has won 8 in a row, Cortez does have a larger streak but their skillsets are vastly different.

In a battle vs the best what would you give the number 15 girl?

Instergram followers and having a nice arse ain't going to count in the octagon, Valentina just doesn't get hit and is pretty hard to takedown, Also Cortez doesn't look that specal as a fighter, I see O'Neil, Firot, Blancfield, and Santos as the next top fighter, 

Valentina is going to lose because she get old, She is 34 and been on top of WMMA for 7 years, What else does she has to do at this point, I just don't see Cortez doing it

"Quack quack quack"
