When Joanna lost the world title, via a savage first round knockout at the hands of new champion Rose Namajunas, she didn’t take the loss at face value.
Instead of admitting defeat, Joanna blamed a bad weight cut, where she said she had to lose 15 pounds in 14 hours in order to make championship weight.
Unfortunately for Joanna, she believes that the bad weight cut was the cause for the loss, and not Rose Namajunas, who the former champion says doesn’t even hit hard.
Well, having heard all of Joanna’s excuses, the new champ, Rose Namajunas reacts to Joanna’s words, and she does so with class, poise, and a little humor.
Rose is un-wavered by Joanna’s excuses, and is not letting them diminish her confidence.
