‘Joanna Champion’ successfully defended her belt for a third time by beating her archrival and opposing TUF 23 coach Gadelha in a back-and-forth affair that Gadelha largely controlled with her wrestling and grappling in the earlygoing.

But the grind of the endless takedown attempts and clinch seemed to wear on Gadelha, as she seemed to tire and leave an opening for a much fresher Jerdzejczyk to land an absolute outpouring of significant strikes in the second round.

With the defining win over her closest competitor, Jedrzejczyk has cemented herself as one of the most dominant champions in all of the UFC, trailing only flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson for the most title defenses in a row in the UFC. Watch the highlights of her telling win over “Claudinha” right here:

Joanna Jedrzejczyk Defends Belt With Decision Win Over Claudia Gadelha

With perhaps one of the most heated backstories in all of MMA dating to their razor-thin bout in late 2014, top-ranked women’s strawweights Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Claudia Gadelha fought to settle their differences at last night’s (July 8, 2016) The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 23 Finale from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Champion Jedrzejczyk dominated the division since defeating Gadelha with a controversial split decision, unseating Carla Esparza and defending her title against Jessica Penne and Valerie Letourneau, while “Claudinha” was looking to take the gold she felt was rightfully hers.

The bad blood-amped rematch started with the champion getting immediately dropped by Gadelha, who lead that into a takedown. The Brazilian looked for a headlock position but “Joanna Champion” got up to control a clinch on the fence. Gadelha broke to throw hands, but Jedrzejczyk landed a combination of her own followed by an uppercut.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk ‘Won’t Blame Production Team’ For TUF 23 ‘Bully’ Portrayal

Heading into her UFC women’s strawweight championship rematch with rival Claudia Gadelha in the main event of Friday’s (July 8, 2016) The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 23 Finale from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Joanna Jedrzejczyk’s popularity may haved waned a bit after the most recent season of TUF portrayed her as a ruthless

The post Joanna Jedrzejczyk ‘Won’t Blame Production Team’ For TUF 23 ‘Bully’ Portrayal appeared first on LowKick MMA.

Yet while it’s not the best look for “Joanna Champion,” the Polish Muay Thai sensation isn’t going to blame anyone for her actions, telling MMA Junkie after today’s (July 5, 2016) TUF 23 Finale open workouts that it was not the production team that made her look a bit harsh, but her and her intense rivalry with Gadelha:

“I can’t blame the ‘TUF’ production (team), Claudia Gadelha or myself. I said what I said and I did what I did. But the thing is that, in our regular life, we accept some people and some of the people, we don’t accept. (Claudia) is a person who I don’t accept, and that’s all.”

As for Nova Uniao product Gadelha, Jedrzejczyk said it was her toughest opponent’s desire to dethrone her that lead her to actiong so rough during the taping of TUF 23, and that the show didn’t fully capture all of what went on:

“I know that she wants to take my belt, my life, my dreams, my goals away from me. I cannot let her do this, and that’s why I was acting like this (on the show). The production couldn’t fit all the stories (in the series). I know the stories, and I can tell you honestly there’s no time to show everything that happened there. There were so many good stories, good moments.”

While Jedrzejczyk did come under intense scrutiny for going off her team – even calling them “p*****s” at one point – the dominant, brutalizing striker noted she wants to try being a TUF coach again, and that her team members still contact to say she changed them, so that’s enough for her.

However, with arguably the most important fight of her life coming up against Gadelha, whom she beat via controversial split decision back at 2014’s UFC on FOX 13, ultimately it was her own career and her own life she had to focus on:

“I would like to do this one more time, even though it showed me as a bully person, because the most important thing was being a coach, and a friend for all of my fighters,” she said. “I’m still receiving messages from my fighters. They said I changed some of them, and I’m happy. That’s the most important thing. Sometimes you cannot tell, but I was real, and I’m sorry that you saw bully Joanna. But it’s me when I must fight for myself, for my dreams, my goals, my life…”
