Valentina Shevchenko was doing a video interview with UFC Español after her victory at UFC 247 when a friend interrupted her. It wasn’t just any friend, though. The party-crasher was Academy Award winner Halle Berry.
The two embraced and Berry congratulated Shevchenko on her third-round TKO win over Katlyn Chookagian to retain the UFC women’s flyweight title at Toyota Center.
Berry gushed on Instagram after Shevchenko’s finish: “My girl did THAT!”

Shevchenko and Berry developed a friendship last year while working together on Berry’s MMA film “Bruised.”
Shevchenko helped train Berry for the movie and had a role in it. “Bruised” is expected to be released before the end of the year.
Berry watched Shevchenko’s UFC 247 fight from cageside, rooting her on.
She also visited with Shevchenko in her locker room beforehand.
