“Man, I can’t stand hearing this. Jessica Andrade saying she's going to kick me out of this division... Hey, calm down, girl, I beat you up, I don't know if you remember. I know you took so many punches in Dallas, and maybe that's why she's talking so much. I can’t stand this”, commented the Polish woman, in an interview with the Combate channel.

For Joanna, Andrade needs to win one or two more fights to get back into a title fight. The Brazilian has already challenged Karolina Kowalkiewicz and the two should face each other at the beginning of next year.

PUBLICITY:

“She can't be next in line, because I crushed her, so she needs to win at least one or two fights to get the title shot again. The other thing is that the fight was good between Jessica and Gadelha, but Gadelha didn't prepare for Andrade the right way, and that's why Gadelha made Jessica look so good, but she didn't bring anything new to the fight against Andrade. Gadelha. She was the same fighter who went against me. I'm the champion for a reason: I have more skills, more weapons. I did my job, I blew her away, that’s all”, concluded Joanna.
