Joanna Jedrzejczyk will collide against the current strawweight champion, Weili Zhang in the main event of UFC 248 on Saturday March 7, 2020. During an episode of UFC Unfiltered,<\/a> the Polish fighter reflected on her time as the 115-pound titleholder and her relationship turmoil that impacted her eventual loss.<\/p>\n

\u201cLife of a single woman,\u201d Jedrzejczyk laughed off as she described her current relationship status [transcript via MMA Fighting<\/a>].<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople in Poland know more, but people in the states and worldwide, they don\u2019t know much about my private life. The last two years were pretty difficult for me. It was a rough time, and I feel like 2019 is a special year, so I can\u2019t wait for 2020.\u201d<\/p>\n

Her championship reign finished in explosive fashion when Jedrzejczyk faced Rose Namajunas in 2017. Namujanas finished her opponent by TKO in the first round and accomplished another victory in their 2018 rematch. Jedrzejczyk revealed some shocking revelations that she believes impacted her performances:<\/p>\n

\u201cI broke up with my fiance, and we broke up before my first fight with Rose Namajunas, and this terrible weight cut happened, and I broke up again. This year I found out that my [previous] manager messed up my money, and then I found out that my fiance was cheating on me.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat girl called me; I think that she was afraid that I was going to beat her up so badly, but I was like, \u2018No, I\u2019m kidding.\u2019 I just want to show to people and tell people that there\u2019s always something going on in our lives. It doesn\u2019t matter who you are. If your private life is not going in the right direction, you\u2019re not going to be successful in the sport, or in the business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite faltering in her consecutive bouts against Namajunas and a 2018 loss to Valentina Shevchenko, the former champion has accomplished 14 straight wins and five successful title defences in her MMA career. Now, Jedrzejczyk will have the prime opportunity to vindicate her losses against the UFC’s first Chinese champion at UFC 248<\/a>. According to Jedrzejczyk, her personal struggles add to life experience, and the true secret to success is happiness:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThis year was amazing, and I cannot wait for that coming 2020. Now I feel free. I feel me, I feel Joanna again. I\u2019m more smart, I\u2019m more experienced. Maybe shitty things happened in my life, but it has to happen somehow. I\u2019m happy. I know what life is about now.<\/p>\n

“When I turned 30, I thought I knew a lot and I had experienced a lot. I was broken in my life, so dedicated to the sport, losing my mind into the sport, working so hard. But that\u2019s the difference \u2013 I\u2019m happy now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Do you think that Joanna Jedrzejczyk will be able to return to her winning ways now that she is once again happy? Sound off in the comments section PENN Nation!<\/p>\n
