Joanna Jedrzejczyk After nearly three full rounds, about a hundred unanswered strikes, and a whole lot of blood that wasn’t hers, Joanna Jedrzejczyk is still the UFC women’s strawweight champion. That’s a good thing for her, since the “Joanna Champion” nickname is tough to pull off if you don’t have the belt around your waist, but it’s also probably a good thing for the UFC. As you may have noticed, the UFC needs charismatic champions, which is exactly what it has in the 27-year-old Jedrzejczyk, who managed to make a heated rivalry out of what could have easily been a lackluster title fight mismatch, then delivered with a performance that was as thorough as it was brutal. At times, Jedrzejczyk’s third-round TKO victory over Jessica Penne looked like a sadistic sort of instructional video.
