Legacy: Joanna Jedrzejczyk elevated an entire weight division

Joanna Jedrzejczyk’s UFC career began in 2014. By that time she had already been a world champion in Muay Thai and put together a 6-0 MMA record outside the UFC. Her MMA career ended on Saturday night. During the nearly 8 years she spent under the UFC banner, Jedrzejczyk accomplished a great deal, including winning and defending the strawweight title five times.

One could go on and on about the numbers Jedrzejczyk put up, her place in the UFC record book and the memorable fights she had. I’ll leave it to others to discuss her accomplishments and conquests, which anyone with a search engine and the ability to play an archived video can find.
