‘Claudinha’ got the better of the champion in the first and second rounds. She dropped her in the first-round and then used her grappling to take her down in the second-round.

#3. Joanna Jedrzejczyk vs. Jessica Penne – UFC Fight Night 69

Jedrzejczyk’s first title defense against Jessica Penne was one of her most impressive performances in the UFC. The champion put her world-class striking on full display and bloodied the challenger.

‘The Boogeywoman’ overwhelmed Penne with vicious combinations that included a front-kick to the face and elbows in the clinch. The volume of strikes and the incredible pace that she maintained was a sight to behold. Penne had no answer for the champion and had a difficult time dealing with the pressure.

From that moment, the challenger’s best chance at winning was taking the champion down and submitting her. She was unable to do so and paid the price with every failed takedown attempt. Jedrzejczyk took advantage of Penne against the fence. She landed a stiff jab, a right-cross and a knee strike to earn a TKO win and a Fight of the Night bonus.
