Jessica Aguilar says Claudia Gadelha has a 'huge' chance in beating champ Joanna Jedrzejczyk

The UFC women's strawweight title is up for grabs this Friday at The Ultimate Fighter 23 Finale, and long-time top-ranked strawweight Jessica Aguilar believes challenger Claudia Gadelha can dethrone the champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk.

Aguilar, who many considered to be the best strawweight in the world prior to joining the UFC rooster, knows a thing or two about Jedrzejczyk's opponent. Last year, Aguilar vacated her WSOF strawweight title to chase UFC gold by taking on Gadelha in a title eliminator bout at UFC 190. That night, Gadelha outpointed Aguilar to win a unanimous decision.
