I saw Corey Anderson posted this on his IG and thought it was old. This guy has to be reined in either by Dana, his family or the commissions by not licensing him to fight. He’s gonna wind up killing himself or some innocent person.

Ya, he should be suspended or something. Sad. Dude legit seemed he was back on track and had conquered his demons so to speak. Not any more

Joanna Jedrzejczyk challenged strawweight Zhang Weili at UFC 248 on March 7 in one of the best fights in memory. As the rounds wore on, Jedrzejczyk developed a massive hematoma; she fought on valiantly, but it wasn't pretty.

The injury has now almost wholly healed, and during a recent appearance on the EuroBash podcast (1:57:00), Jedrzejczyk talked about the ordeal.

“Honestly, I know I’m in a man’s sport, but I don’t think there is a sport for a girl or a sport for a guy – the world is free, it’s the 21st century," said Jedrzejczyk, as transcribed by Peter Carroll for MMA FIghting. "I’m a very clean person, my aesthetic, I like to keep it clean. My clothing...I take showers about four or five times a day! I’m very girly, so I hate myself when I’m like this, but that’s the price we have to pay.”

“There’s always a [bad] side to your job ... I hate it, man, I hate it and I want to take care of my health. Being an athlete, being in this sport, it changes your body; it changes your head, your mind; how you look and how you walk. It cost me a lot of sacrifices, changes in my body and I’m still a woman, I want to be attractive. And I want to be a mother in the future so I always want to take care of my health. In the UFC you have everything - good healthcare and they’re always taking good care of us.”

“There are still a few bruises, but I was laughing about the memes after my fight. Even though I cut myself off from social media I was still laughing, but I’m telling you guys from the next day, the swelling in my forehead went down and I couldn’t see out my left eye for two days. I had a vision of only five percent in my left eye - it was pretty rough. It is what it is, the swelling went down."

“I had an X-ray, I had an ultrasound, I had everything. I went to the plastic surgeon in Poland and I small medical procedure on my ear. Everything is good with my head. I’m good!”

Khabib vs Tony just isn't meant to happen :yeshrug: something out there be it the MMA gods, the universe or some deity has just deemed it so. My advice, next time don't announce the fight. Have them sign contracts, do training camps, no media appearances, weigh-ins in secret and then on the card they choose, just spring it on the fans as a surprise bout.
