UFC 211 took place over the weekend with a set of title fight matchups. The Dallas, Texas show took place inside the American Airlines Center with a tough co-main event title fight matchup. The match was a brawl that left the victor with quite a few bruises.
In the co-main event, Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk faced off against rising challenger Jessica Andrade. The champion successfully defended her title, but her victory came at a price.
The mixed martial arts battle largely stayed on the feet. Ultimately going the distance, the two fighters tested each others striking for five brutal rounds. Jedrzejczyk took advantage of her reach, while Andrade landed some powerful bombs on her opponent.
In the end, Jedrzejczyk earned a unanimous decision victory over her opponent. However, the champion suffered a large hematoma and several bruises on her face from the battle. In a recent interview with UFC on FOX, Jedrzejczyk gave her thoughts on the new battle wounds.
