Joanna is an absolute legend. Carries herself like a true champion and terrorized the division for a long time. Hall of fame for sure. She's done so much for polish mma and women's mma. She certainly doesn't have to worry about being forgotten.
It seems retiring is the best thing that happened to her she looks very happy and full of life more than she already have before I’m happy for her and I wish her luck and happiness in her life.
Honestly, because Joanna unfortunately lost more than she won over the last 5 years, it doesn't convey how incredibly she was still doing. She came back and fought Rose, then champion, for 5 rounds after being TKO'd by her the first time, out-striking her. She went up a weight class and lost to Valentina, the arguable (between her and Nunes) Women's GOAT. She (in my opinion) arguably won against then champion Zhang in the most razor thin fight you've ever seen, and then after more than 2 years off immediately returned to fight Zhang again, and while doing well in the striking, was outclassed in the wrestling and eventually shut down on the feet with a beautiful spinning backfist. So, in the last 5 years, she literally only lost to champions. Add in that she defended the belt 5 times unlike Carla who never defended, Rose who's only defended once a time (so twice altogether but not consecutively) and Zhang who's also only defended once and I would definitely say she's still the Strawweight Queen.
@@richardmorris7063 She absolutely mauled her, didn't she? Showed the difference between a specialist who's developed other areas as needed (e.g. Joanna putting on a striking clinic but routinely stuffing Carla's takedowns) vs a specialist who just spams it (resulting in it becoming far too predictable and Joanna getting comfortable defending the takedowns).
I didn't like Johanna much when she fought, when she said bow down to her I thought that was not a good look or attitude. But she was top 5 woman all time & was smart to get out. When her head was twice it's normal size in that one fight I was worried for her.I hate to see woman like that. She looks nice now, has all her wits & much more humble too.Good luck girl!
she looks as good as ive ever seen her .great actually, retirement looks good on her,i still think your great.should have stopped after 1st wanlee fight.youre fine the way you are.stay that way..if you miss it that much then coach.
@@warrenstringham415 she doesn't look like a trans woman, you probably have eye issues. I think he meant she looks healthier and better than when she used to fight
Please come back Joanna! You're a fantastic fighter and still easily good enough to win your title back. You could do this next year and retire again shortly afterwards. You would then still have plenty of time to do all the other things you want to accomplish in life. If not, thank you for being such a great fighter and champion!
@@veluta2549 To be fair I actually agree with you. As much as I want Joanna to come back I think she has probably made the right decision. It just frustrates me she didn't get the title back one more time when she is clearly good enough to do so.
Fam....can we not agree ; seeing JOANNA CHAMPION (right now) looking fine AF, and, legit no cap happy, is an all around win. for Her and for the MMA community. Bow Down for the Queen boys and girls! They dont even make em like that anymore. I know Carla Esparza bends the knee if she's within 200 yards of Joanna! 💯 . However, its more like an unintentional collapse of her entire body; when it senses Joanna's presence! heh heh. I'm Kidding, kinda. 🙊😫😭 When I think about carla's "match" against "Thug Froze" to win the title🤦♂....... I just go watch her fight with Joanna! its literally worth the $40 every time I see it
i thought she retired in fear someone would pop those 2 balloons she had put on her chest,she fought tough when she was flat as a board but as soon as she put those balloons on her chest it slowed her down

She did give us fans some exciting fights. Much respect Joanna.

No one is reading this
@@kriss2558 you're a grown man...
I think her best fight was against Carla, she fucked her up bad. I like the humble Jo much better..
@@kriss2558 Not everyone is illiterate or lazy like you.

Actually I wanna see her in every UFC event, no matter as fighter or guest.
ATT didnt improve her striking skills under the last 2 years, they are the one to blame. ATT has not champions anymore..
She's retired. But looks happy
She looks incredibly good
Legend.
She’s such a pretty girl and she has the heart of a true warrior

I hope she comes back for few fights, her and Lemos would be exciting.
Smart lady!!! 💯 Championship achieved!!1❤ Recognized it was time to get out of the sport 🐐👍💕

are you into trans women?
@@warrenstringham415 no not at all.i love agressive women.shes a 10 to me.

Joanna will definitely coming back if Carla defends the belt🤣🤣
Pretty big if
@@djembejambi bet on it

@@mega00760 Marina & Lemos
She said she was worried about damage but the first fight with Whaley was way worse for her
Whaley
I miss gollum.

Hope she comes back.
She should have had at least one lower ranked girl before taking on zhang! She was off for two years.
Wish she could have kept going though
Boy would I love to date Johanna she is down to earth awesome woman lady all of the above!!!!

Get a grip you simp, nobody wants her back til his day she’s still adamant she didn’t tap to strikes from rose when there is video evidence of it
let her retire in peace lol.

i thought she retired in fear someone would pop those 2 balloons she had put on her chest,she fought tough when she was flat as a board but as soon as she put those balloons on her chest it slowed her down
