Valentina Shevchenko has expressed her understanding that UFC 306 at the Sphere will no longer be themed around Mexican Independence Day. Shevchenko mentioned that the event would be completely different in terms of location and date. However, Alexa Grasso, who is also involved in the event, is perplexed by Shevchenko's claims and asserts that the event will still be dedicated to Mexican Independence Day. The confusion arises as both fighters have received conflicting information about the event's theme.
