Arguably the most dominant female mixed-martial artists to ever step onto the canvas attempt a phenomenal fifth successful title defence as Joanna Jędrzejczyk takes on Brazilian powerhouse Jéssica Andrade. The Polish favourite has established herself as one of the most iconic strikers in the UFC today, particularly with her sheer volume. Making her octagon debut back in 2014, Joanna defeated Juliana Lima before a close win over Cláudia Gadelha earned her a shot at Carla Esparza, whom she completely annihilated on her way to a second round KO win. Jedrzejczyk's dominance has been staggering ever since, defending against Jessica Penne, Bellator Flyweight Valérie Létourneau, the aforementioned Gadelha and then most recently at UFC 205, survived a late scare to decision compatriot Karolina Kowalkiewicz. Brazil's Jéssica 'Bate Estaca' Andrade presents Joanna's most difficult challenge to date, with her aggressive style and BJJ background and at just 25 years of age, is destined for championship gold at some stage in her career, and has so far been unstoppable since her move to Strawweight, finishing Jessica Penne, Joanne Calderwood and just at the beginning of February, overcame Invicta FC Strawweight queen Angela Hill. With 5 career losses to Joanna's perfect 13-0, Andrade can Ben accused of a reckless, 'shoot from the hip' striking style, but if she catches Jędrzejczyk, the Pole could find herself in a spot of bother. A huge advantage in this affair will certainly be the grappling prowess of Andrade, but I can see Jędrzejczyk displaying her signature striking clinic on her way to a dominant decision defence.
Joanna Jędrzejczyk via unanimous decision.
