Anyone here a native/fluent Spanish speaker? Wanted thoughts on Valentina Shevchenko's Spanish

[Reclusive]

I am currently learning Spanish and one of the things I enjoy doing is watching different media content in Spanish such as podcast, streams, interviews etc and Shevchenko being one of my favorite fighters who speaks fluent Spanish I have been listening to some of her many Spanish interviews/talkshows.

My question is how good is her Spanish? Does it sound like it could be her first language? Also does she have a typical Peruvian accent as that's where she's lived a lot of her life/learned Spanish or is it mixed with some Kyrgyzstani/Russian vibes as well? Any tips on learning Spanish would be appreciated as well.

Here's some of her interviews/a Spanish documentary of her

Big time Russian accent but she speaks pretty well.


Tips on learning Spanish:

Learn on a pillow

Speaks it really well with a russian accent. Way better than guys like Ferguson and Melendez.

 

[JSN]

She sound like Dracula.

 

[Within the Living Death]

It's good. She is definitely fluent. Sometimes she mispronounces words, but you always know what she's saying.

Why?

Why?

When you sit cross-legged on top of a cushion your body's posture allows you to better remember new vocabulary.

She seems like she'd be a minx in the sack.

Why is this broad speaking a romance language as oppose to what I can only assume is her native tongue, a slavic language?

Sleeper agent.

Worth it imo. Before she slits your throat.

Why?

Have you never heard of a sleeping dictionary?

It's the best method for learning languages.

She is decent, definitely has a heavy accent, and I can tell she is translating on her head, rather than thinking in Spanish.

Wanna learn?, go live on a Spanish speaking country, that'll teach you!

Much better than Cain.

Its almost as if some native spanish speaker was trying to imitate a russian accent.

 

[DaleBoca]

She speaks the language well, but she has a very noticeable accent. Werdum, who was born and raised in Brazil moved to Spain and he speaks Spanish much better than most Chicanos in the U.S and the UFC. Cain's Spanish for example, is comedic, it sounds like he picked up taking a few courses in college.

For being a native South American and fluent in Spanish, this man speaks the truth. Chicanos Spanish is 60% forced Spanish with 40% English for every other word they don't know how to says And Cain Spanish is worst than Cristiano Ronaldo's who speaks like 4 languages.

One of the most awkward Spanish conversations ever
