By The Numbers: Weili Zhang vs. Joanna Jedrzejczyk

Their first encounter resulted in an all-time classic. Most expect something similar in the rematch.

Weili Zhang will confront fellow former Ultimate Fighting Championship women’s strawweight titleholder Joanna Jedrzejczyk for the second time when they collide in a featured UFC 275 attraction on Saturday at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang, Singapore. They combined to land 366 total strikes against one another at UFC 248 a little more than two years ago, with Zhang emerging from the unforgettable five-round battle as a split decision winner. Jedrzejczyk has not set foot in the cage since, while her Chinese counterpart has suffered back-to-back losses to Rose Namajunas.

As Zhang and Jedrzejczyk put the final touches on their respective training camps, a look at some of the numbers that have accompanied them to this point:

32: Years of age for Zhang, who was born in Handan, China, on Aug. 13, 1989.

7: Zhang victories by submission, accounting for 33% of her career total (21). Her methods of choice: three armbars, three rear-naked chokes and one guillotine choke. Zhang holds 10 other victories by knockout or technical knockout and four more by decision.

3: Sub-minute finishes on the Zhang resume. They include her sensational 42-second technical knockout of Jessica Andrade in the UFC Fight Night 157 main event, which brought with it the undisputed women’s strawweight crown on Aug. 31, 2019.

5.47: Strikes landed per minute of UFC competition for Zhang, good for fifth on the organization’s all-time list for women’s strawweights. Only Andrade (6.70), Jedrzejczyk (6.62), Xiaonan Yan (5.66) and Joanne Wood (5.59) have connected at a higher rate than the Fight Ready standout.

.732: Cumulative winning percentage between the two opponents—Namajunas (twice) and Meng Bo—who have beaten Zhang. They sport a combined record of 30-11.

34: Years of age for Jedrzejczyk, who was born on Aug. 18, 1987 in Olsztyn, Poland.

4: Jedrzejczyk wins by knockout or technical knockout, accounting for 25% of her career total (16). The American Top Team rep’s complete list of victims: Jessica Penne, Carla Esparza, Rosi Sexton and Kate Jackson. Jedrzejczyk owns one other win by submission—she put away Liliya Kazak with a rear-naked choke in the first round of their Makowski Fighting Championship 5 pairing on Dec. 8, 2012—and 11 more by decision.

1,633: Significant strikes landed by Jedrzejczyk as a UFC women’s strawweight, placing her first on the promotion’s all-time list at 115 pounds. In fact, she has connected with 146 more such strikes than her closest competitor—onetime Invicta Fighting Championships titleholder Angela Hill (1,487)—and has done so in seven fewer appearances.

62: Professional rounds completed by Jedrzejczyk as a mixed martial artist. She has gone the distance on 14 different occasions and carries an 11-3 record in those bouts.

54: Combined victories between the three opponents—Namajunas (twice), Zhang and Valentina Shevchenko—who have defeated Jedrzejczyk. They boast a cumulative .831 winning percentage (54-11).
