10 UFC Fights That Need To Happen In 2020
6. Zhang Vs. Jedrzejczyk
Joanna Jedrzejczyk is undoubtedly a great fighter, yet the former UFC Women’s Strawweight Champion has a habit of rubbing people up the wrong way with her brash attitude and arrogant, crass fighting style.
Sure, that famous Thug Rose loss seemed to humble Joanna, but that hasn’t stopped her poking and prodding the current 115-pound champ, Weili Zhang. Confidently stating that she’d fight Zhang anywhere at any time and beat the crap out of her, Jedrzejczyk has clearly got the attention of Zhang – with the Strawweight Champion herself taking to social media in an attempt to encourage Dana White to make the fight happen.
This is a major change to Zhang’s previous comments about Joanna essentially not being worth her time as she’s not the fighter she once was. Much like Joanna Jedrzejczyk has done so often throughout her career, it appears as if the Polish fighter’s mouth is going to get her the fight that she wants.
In Magnum, Joanna may be biting off more than she can chew, for the Chinese fighter has a career record of 20-1 – which is even more impressive when that sole loss came in Zhang’s very first professional fight.
