Published 03/18/2020, 4:18 PM EDT

At UFC 248, Joanna Jędrzejczyk went to war with the women’s strawweight champion, Weili Zhang. Although Joanna lost the match, people around the world lauded her efforts. However, ATT teammate Colby Covington was not impressed by her performance.

Jonna was the UFC strawweight champion for quite a while. She suffered her first defeat in November 2017. Since then, she has struggled to find her footing in the division. Joanna also tried her luck in the flyweight division but failed to capture the flyweight title. She then returned to strawweight.

After a victory over Michelle Waterson, Joanna earned herself a second title shot against Weili Zhang. The bout between Weili and Joanna was a brutal war. Many consider it as a hall of fame worthy fight. It could have gone either way, but the champion retained her title.

Trash talking is a key aspect of Joanna’s game. It allows her to have a psychological edge over her opponent. However, Covington who himself talks trash to get under his opponents’ skin, was having none of it.

He said, “She was talking so much s*** that I just had to see her get humbled. It was so amazing to see Joanna get her face humbled. And she still got some black marks on her face. Disgusting!”
