Joanna Jedrzejczyk at UFC 223: Best photos view 12 images RIO DE JANEIRO – UFC women’s strawweight Tecia Torres once shared a gym with ex-champ Joanna Jedrzejczyk , but there’s no shared history that might inform her plan when they fight. Although the pair shared a training home at American Top Team, Torres said they only trained together once. “She was there for a while before I left, but honestly, she didn’t train with the UFC girls,” Torres (10-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC), who meets Jedrzejczyk (14-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) at UFC on FOX 30, told reporters backstage at UFC 224. “I don’t know if that’s changed since I left ATT, but she would always do her own thing, or use the, I’ll say, lower-tier girls.” Before she moved to Colorado Springs, Colo., to work with her fiancee and coach Raquel Pennington, Torres said there was an abundance of talent for Jedrzejczyk to sharpen her skills against, including women’s strawweights Nina Ansaroff, Jessica Aguilar and Valerie Letourneau. The team bonded as they helped each other improve, which made Jedrzejczyk’s choice to remain separate look like a competitive move
