Joanna Jedrzejczyk is ready to compete again.
The former women’s strawweight queen returns after more than two years out when she faces Weili Zhang in a rematch at UFC 275 taking place June 11 in Singapore.
It’s essentially a title eliminator as well, with Carla Esparza now reigning as the new 115-pound champion.
And it’s fair to say Jedrzejczyk is ready for her return.
Taking to social media, the Polish star showed off her six pack as she was getting ready to board to Singapore.

With her flight initially being canceled, Jedrzejczyk eventually made it to Singapore.
Joanna Jedrzejczyk Confident Ahead Of Rematch
Jedrzejczyk is clearly in a good space ahead of her return.
She’s already detailed her plans to become strawweight champion and get her life back. Additionally, she feels no pressure going into the fight with Zhang given her long hiatus.
It’s even more so the case given that she believes she won their first encounter.
“Now, there’s no pressure,” she said. “I was out for two years because I decided to be out for two years. … I’m in the best shape ever. I’m 34, I’m turning 35 in three months. The weight cut is easy, everything is just easier, more smart and I can’t wait to rock and roll.
“I don’t know what’s going to happen in this fight but you know what? I won the last fight. I will step into the Octagon with this confidence that, ‘hey, I won the last fight, it was close, she got the decision but I’m better.’”
Jedrzejczyk lost a razor-thin split decision to Zhang when they competed for the strawweight title back in March 2020.
