bjpenndotcom - November 8, 2016

UFC women’s strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk is undoubtably one of the greatest female mixed martial artists on the planet. With a 12-0 professional mixed martial arts record to go along with a 27-2 professional kickboxing record to go with several world Muay Thai championships, Jedrzejczyk is shaping quite the impressive legacy for herself.

Get Ready to Meet "New Joanna" At UFC 205

Tom Taylor - November 8, 2016

Since joining the UFC in mid-2014, strawweight striker Joanna Jedrzejczyk has established herself as one of the best fighters on earth, and as one the sport’s brightest shining stars. In her first two fights with the organization, she took decisions from Juliana Lima in Claudia Gadelha. In her third fight in the Octagon, she claimed the strawweight title with a second-round destruction of former champ Carla Esparza. From there, she would go on to defend the title three times, first TKOing Jessica Penne, then decisioning Valerie Letourneau, and finally defeating Claudia Gadelha in a hard-fought rematch in her most recent fight.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk wants fans to remember her for fighting abilities, not looks

bjpenndotcom - November 3, 2016

UFC women’s strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk is currently ranked as the #8 pound for pound fighter in the world on the UFC’s official rankings. With a 12-0 professional record that has seen Jedrzejczyk go 6-0 inside the Octagon, including three defenses of the women’s strawweight championship, Jedrzejczyk’s dominance in the sport can’t be ignored. While Jedrzejczyk reigns as the women’s strawweight champion, she has expressed a desire to move up to flyweight, and become not only the first ever women’s flyweight champion, but also the first female fighter to hold two championship belts. At the present time however, the UFC currently does not have a women’s flyweight division, leaving Jedrzejczyk to continue her reign over the women’s strawweight division.

Tom Taylor - October 31, 2016

When it comes to UFC 205, no fight is generating more hype than the main event, which will see Conor McGregor attempt to become the first fighter in UFC history to hold two titles concurrently by defeating lightweight champ Eddie Alvarez. A quick look at this historic card’s lineup, however, reveals that there is much more to be excited about than the main event – particularly the other two title fights that top the bill.

Tom Taylor - October 16, 2016

UFC 205, which marks the Octagon’s long-awaited debut in New York City, New York, is arguably the finest fight card ever assembled by the organization. Much of its strength can be attributed to the three title fights that sit atop the pay-per-view. The biggest of these title fights, of course, is the main event, which will see featherweight champion Conor McGregor challenge lightweight king Eddie Alvarez in an effort to become the first fighter in UFC history to hold two belts in tandem.

Jessica Andrade: UFC Strawweight Champ Joanna Jedrzejczyk Has a "Weak Chin"

Tom Taylor - October 16, 2016

Brazil’s Jessica Andrade, who stands just 5’2, began her UFC career fighting much taller women in the bantamweight division. Yet after a decent run in this division, which saw her amass a 3-2 record against solid competition, she decided to drop to the strawweight division, where she’d be at less of a physical disadvantage. This move has paid dividends for the dangerous Brazilian. In just two fights, she has transformed from the middling competitor she was at bantamweight into a bona fide strawweight contender.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk unhappy with how she is portrayed on TUF 23

bjpenndotcom - June 3, 2016

Many fans quickly began to turn on UFC women’s strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk when season 23 of The Ultimate Fighter began airing. Jedrzejczyk was portrayed in a rather negative way, as footage of her provoking Claudia Gadelha and her coaches with trash talk began to air. Jedrzejczyk has remained quiet on the situation, however in a recent interview with SiriusXM Fight Club she explained that she isn’t watching the show.
