Joanna Jedrzejczyk vs. Claudia Gadelha to Co-Main UFC 195 Behind Rousey vs. Holm

Ronda Rousey and Holly Holm will have some great help carrying the UFC 195 card. According to UFC President Dana White, via Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times, the event will also feature a women's strawweight title fight between Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Claudia Gadelha.

Since claiming the women's strawweight title, Jedrzejczyk has become one of the fastest-rising stars in MMA. The Polish striker earned a shot at the belt by taking back-to-back Octagon wins ahead of The Ultimate Fighter Season 20 finale. She took on its eventual winner (and the inaugural strawweight champion), Carla Esparza at UFC 185, and despite underdog status, would dominate the fight with rangy striking and surprisingly sturdy takedown defense while scoring a second-round TKO win.

While that was impressive on its own, Jedrzejczyk asserted herself as one of the scariest fighters in MMA with her vicious demolition of Jessica Penne. Against the former Invicta champion, Jedrzejczyk showed off brutal swarming combinations that left the challenger a bloody, battered mess.

Worth noting is that Gadelha and Jedrzejczyk have fought once before. That was in December 2014 at UFC on Fox 13. In a hotly contested bout, Jedrzejczyk came out on the better end of a narrow split decision. Gadelha has only fought once since, but she scored a lopsided win over former WSOF champion Jessica Aguilar. That victory, combined with her long history of success against high-level competition, kept her at the top of the division's rankings and at the center of the title picture.

UFC 195 is set to go down on January 2 in Las Vegas. Who do you think gets the better of this one, fight fans?
