UFC legend Joanna Jedrzejczyk has sent a special message to Sergio Ramos which has caused a huge uproar. Joanna is one of the best-ever fighters in MMA history who announced her retirement from the sport last year. Having been a former UFC Women’s Strawweight champion, Joanna has played an iconic role in putting the weight class on the map. However, her recent message to soccer star Sergio Ramos has raised a few eyebrows.
Former Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos recently followed Joanna Jedrzejczyk on Instagram. Ramos’ action prompted the Polish star to post a video message on her Instagram thanking the Spanish soccer player. She said, “Sergio Ramos, thanks for follow. Welcome on board. I guess you like UFC.” She also put up a series of kissing emojis.

Joanna also posted the video with the caption, “Well, well… Sergi @sergioramos. Been a fan for a long time, but have not expected to see you here! Welcome to the gang!” Although Joanna posted the video with good intentions, fans are having a field day reacting to her message. Fans believe that Joanna’s message might create problems in Ramos’ marriage.
One fan wrote, “Sergio will have problems with his wife,” while another commented, “Joanna shooting her shot.” Another fan wrote, “Sergio Ramos is the prize she wants.” Sergio Ramos is currently married to Spanish reporter and TV presenter Pilar Rubio, having been together since 2012. The couple got married in 2019 in Sevilla and they are parents to their four children.

It appears as if Sergio Ramos is taking a special interest in the UFC. The former PSG star is a big fan of the former UFC Featherweight and Lightweight champion Conor McGregor. Moreover, Ramos has been frequently seen imitating McGregor‘s iconic Billionaire Strut. He also recently started following Joanna Jedrzejczyk on Instagram. In addition to this, Ramos was also present at Ilia Topuria‘s fight against Josh Emmett.
Ilia Topuria, the mixed Gregorian-Spanish fighter, had a monumental night as he defeated the highly ranked Josh Emmett. Topuria defeated the American in a convincing and dominant display, which has led to fans hailing him as the “Next Conor McGregor.” Moreover, Topuria had two special stars in his support at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in the form of Spanish soccer legend Ramos as well as FC Barcelona forward Ferran Torres.
