Joanna Jedrzejczyk just lost her UFC Women’s Strawweight Title a few weeks back to Rose Namajunas at UFC 217.
The for🅘mer champion is claiming that when she fights in the Octagon again, it is going to be a 🦋championship bout.
“I know what I want in life. Just like I’ve done for the last two years, the last 14 years of my career, it will be the same next year,” Jedrzejczyk said to . “I back up my words — I don’t just talk. I already spoke to the UFC, and my return is set. My next fight will be for the title belt. I don’t know if Rose is going to want to fight in a month, in January or in February. I’ll spend the next two months in Poland with my family. I have a lot of media obligations, [and] I'll be flying out to China in a few days and that’s that. This is my time away, my rest. Like I said, if Rose wants to fight in February or March with the first contender available, it doesn’t matter to me if she’ll be wearing the belt or if there will be a new champion. I’m going after what’s mine and that’s the belt.”
This statement by Jedrzejczyk goes against what the new champion recently said, which was that the f🍒ormer champion may not get an immediate rematch.
Jedrzejczyk even says that without the title around her waist, that she is stil🌳l the queen of the women’s strawweight division.
“Rose was very shocked, like the rest of the world. Like I’ve said, she won in a beautiful fashion, but the belt is mine. I’ve built this weight class. I’m the queen of this weight class and I always will be. You can believe it or not,” says Jedrzejczyk.
Neither Namajunas o🐎r the UFC have responded to these recent claims from Jedrzejczyk.
