In an interview with the 'Combate' channel website, the leader of Kimura Nova União praised his athlete's performance, but was surprised by the fatigue shown by Gadelha during the fight due to the high pace of the fight and several attempts to take Joanna to the floor.

“She had a great fight, so much so that she was awarded best of the night. We didn't expect her to get tired because she was very well prepared, but the pace of the fight was very strong. If she had controlled the ground in the first rounds, when she took down, she would have made a difference in the fourth and fifth (round). She spent a lot of energy trying to take the fall several times. Unfortunately, it was Joanna’s day,” she said.
