UFC strawweight Weili Zhang has played down a fightufffcufffc with Joanna Jedrzejczyk, stating the former championufffc “isn’t the fighter she used to beufffc.”

Jedrzejczyk got back in the win column last weekend when she defeated Michelle Waterson by unanimous decision in the main event of UFC Tampa. It was the 32-year-old’s second win in her last five UFC appearances and with a lack of clear contenders at strawweight the win put Jedrzejczyk in pole position for a title shot.

However, talking recently to TMZ Sports, Zhang feels Jedrzejczyk isn’t quite what she used to be, instead the Chinese champ would prefer a fight with Rose Namajunas.
