Some picture Rousey reclaiming the throne with a vintage victory. Others imagine Nunes mauling the long absent Rousey to retain the title. Others are unwilling to make a prediction one way or the other.<\/p>\n<p>You can include UFC strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk in this latter category. Jedrzejczyk, who now trains alongside Nunes at American Top Team, but also has a friendship with Rousey, was unwilling to pick a winner when asked to do so by <a href=\"http:\/\/mmajunkie.com\/2016\/12\/champ-joanna-jedrzejczyk-explains-why-she-wont-predict-ufc-207s-nunes-rousey-headliner\">MMAJunkie.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI don\u2019t like to give predictions for everyone,\u201d Jedrzejczyk said. \u201cOf course I am teammates with Amanda Nunes, but I\u2019ve had longer relationship with Ronda Rousey. She deserves to fight for this title right after she lost to Holly Holm. It\u2019s been a while, more than a year, where she\u2019s been out of the competition, but I\u2019m very happy for her. I\u2019m very happy for Ronda. I\u2019m happy for Amanda because she can defend the title against one of the best athletes ever.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While Jedrzejczyk was unwilling to make a prediction, she did admit she considers this fight a tough one for both women.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI think it\u2019s going to be very difficult fight for both of them, but both of them are very, very strong,\u201d Jedrzejczyk said. \u201cNot just physically, but mentally as well.
