UFC president Dana White has appeared to let slip who strawweight champion Zhang Weili will make her first title defence against.
White reposted Zhang’s Instagram post, which was in response to former champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk’s provocative call-out via the Post last week.
“Anywhere, anytime … Bangkok, Sri Lanka, Warsaw, Toronto, it doesn't matter where. For me, it doesn't matter. I will make my way. Even if we have to take a canoe, I will make it to China and beat the s*** out of her,” Jedrzejczyk told the Post.
Zhang (professional record 20-1) – who is the UFC’s first Chinese champion – responded by telling Poland’s Jedrzejczyk (16-3) to call her management or White himself.
“She seems very angry? Don’t worry she will calm down. I am ready now. Call my manager. I am ready,” Zhang said in an Instagram post.
