Joanna Jedrzejczyk: Ronda Rousey ‘had a terrible weight cut’ for Holly Holm fight

Last week, Joanna Jedrzejczyk revealed the grueling weight cut she went through for her title defense against Rose Namajunas at UFC 217 last November. The former UFC strawweight champion specifically stated that she experienced numb legs after cutting 15 pounds in 14 hours.

During her recent appearance on The MMA Hour, Jedrzejczyk said she is now thinking about speaking with fellow former champion Ronda Rousey, whom she believed also went through the same experience ahead of the Holly Holm fight at UFC 193 in 2015.
