Joanna Jedrzejczyk: Current Legacy is Already ‘Big,’ But Reclaiming 115-Belt is ‘My Mission’

After losing her last bout and three of her last four overall, it might have appeared as though Joanna Jedrzejczyk was nearing the end of the road in her MMA career.

Jedrzejczyk proved otherwise against Michelle Waterson.

Jedrzejczyk (16-3) was masterful against “The Karate Hottie” in the main event of UFC Fight Night 161 in Tampa, as she won a lopsided unanimous decision over a high-level fighter with a huge fanbase. Jedrzejczyk used her terrific striking prowess to keep the Albuquerque fighter at bay, and she picked Waterson (17-7) apart with ease.
