– Holy moly! I looked like a zombie!

Joanna Jedrzejczyk looked in the mirror and got a shock. In the fight prior against Zhang Weili at UFC 248 had been given and taken 351 punches and kicks. It went to a third place finish in the federation’s list of most punches and kicks in a single match.

And it was clear to see that many had hit Joanna.

She had lost the battle, and to this day she claims that the defeat did more evil than the battles, sparkene and the pain, which influenced her subsequent.

She looked like most of all about the elephant man’s little sister.

It was a severe swelling in the forehead, one of his eyes was swollen, so she could not see, and she had a gigantic blodansamling to relate to.

Her twin sister had to help her take a bath before she was taken to hospital in Las Vegas, where the fight had taken place.

– One day publish, I pictures of how I looked. It was so much fun; there were people I knew who didn’t recognize me, she says in an interview with the british BBC

The images we need now do not wait, for there were photographers present at the fight that was fought 7. march.

And they caught, indeed, quite fine, what happened with the particular Jedrzejczyks face in what Dana White, UFC’s president, have called one of the best matches in the sport’s history.

It began early in the fight, because the right eye on the chinese closed in, while Jedrzejczyks forehead began to raise up in 3. place. According to the main character was her physical therapist along the way, afraid that the pan would give in to the swelling.

– It would have given my face a big scar, she says.

– It hurt so much. For a moment I contemplated stopping, but then I felt my body move forward, she says.

the Victory for Zhang Weili meant that she captured the belt in stråvægt (48-52 kg class) – as the first chinese UFC champion ever.

Oddly enough it was Weili who received the greatest hug along the way in the five rounds; 186 punches and kicks in all. It is the highest number, a losing party has ever given along the way.

the Only permanent damage to Jedrzejczyk, as she herself puts it, A broken heart and a scar on the soul.

How! Not complain about the little superficial scratches. Just on.

There was no more than a few days, so had the swelling subsided. And when that was gone three weeks, there was no more to see.

– I was aware that I would the whole. What I was actually most angry about was that I had been looking forward to some cozy days in Vegas with friends and family. But it is the price we pay. I have made it here in 17 years, so I know the game, she says.
