It appears injury woes could be the only thing holding back Joanna Jedrzejczyk from dominating the UFC strawweight division for the foreseeable future. Jedrzejczyk (11-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) reportedly broke her right hand for the second time in as many fights when she battered challenger Valerie Letourneau (8-4 MMA, 3-1 UFC) en route to a unanimous-decision win  in this past Saturday’s UFC 193 pay-per-view co-headliner. The reigning 115-pound champ will undergo surgery in the near future to repair the damage, which is not in the same spot as her previous break, according to a report from MMAFighting.com . Jedrzejczyk landed a UFC title-fight record 220 significant strikes against Letourneau at UFC 193. Many of those strikes were kicks and left punches; Jedrzejczyk threw very few right hands after the first round, which is likely when the break occurred. The 27-year-old is not unfamiliar to hand issues.

The rest is here:
