The match in Berlin of 20th June 2015, which Joanna Jedrzejczyk had set up and put her newly won title for grabs against Invicta FC import the TUF standout Jessica Penne ended up with bloodied faces. Joanna Jedrzejczyk pounded Jessica Penne into a bloody pulp of meat and the referee had to stop the fight after the third round in a five round match, declaring Joanna Jedrzejczyk a winner by Technical knock out with a score of 162-28 favoring Joanna Jedrzejczyk. The straight campaign, she ended up with a broken thumb which needs surgery. The damage done by the barrage of kicks, blows of elbows and punches which Jessica Penne has received would take weeks to recover. The fact the Penne did not give in a submission and kept fighting till the referee called it a TKO shows how brave she is as a fighter.
My question is to the viewers and the readers. Is such kind of mercilessness needed to win titles? Should such Insanity be permitted by the governing sports body? Are we getting back to the Gladiator era?

Professional fights are bloody. People go to see blood or gore. Those who do not like, do not watch. This is all part of the show.
Yes Abhijit..I agree..
I guess both the competitors are aware of consequences before the fight.
Yes Ravish, and I am sure the money too is lucrative enough..
There is a line in every aspect of life, which needs to be drawn and not crossed.
Yes Lata, I agree. The fact that she did not stop after drawing first blood proves it..
Know very little about such fights so am unsure about the rights and wrongs. Personally I’m a Buddhist and do not believe in unnecessary violence. I dislike blood sports.
Very well said kalpanaa..
I hate any kind of fights UK 🙁
Gory sport Archi.. 🙂
