Zhang Weili trains with Henry Cejudo ahead of rematch against Rose Namajunas

Ahead of her upcoming fight, Zhang Weili began training with former UFC flyweight and bantamweight champion Henry Cejudo and current Bellator lightweight champion Patricio Freire at the Fight Ready MMA gym in Phoenix, Arizona. She claimed that Cejudo had invited her to train with him quite a while ago.

Weili claimed the strawweight belt at UFC Fight Night 157 with a dominant 42-second TKO victory over Jessica Andrade in August 2019.

In March last year, she successfully defended her title against another former champ, Joanna Jedrzejczyk. The bout was declared Fight of the Year by the UFC.
