Joanna Jedrzejczyk, the UFC women's strawweight champion and maybe the most exciting fighter to break onto the big stage this year, underwent thumb surgery on Friday.
Yesterday I had an apointment with Dr. Shin and surgery was necessary. So today we had the procedure at Kerlan jobe, surgery was a sucess and everybody at the hospital was super nice to me. If everything goes ok I will be back in time to fight before the end of the year. #ufc #jj #jjchampion
The bad news: This will keep Jedrzejczyk out of action longer than was originally estimated.
