Henry Cejudo is setting the stage for a make-or-break fight at February’s UFC 298 event. If he doesn’t come out on top, Cejudo says he’s ready to walk away from the sport for good.
The former UFC flyweight and bantamweight champion suffered a defeat in his last fight after a three-year hiatus. And now, he’s eyeing redemption in his upcoming bout against his training partner, Merab Dvalishvili. But if things don’t go his way, Cejudo is ready to call it quits.
In a recent interview with The HJR Experiment podcast, via MMA Junkie, Cejudo expressed his motivation and willingness to test himself, but also acknowledged the challenges of the sport and the sacrifices he’s had to make.
For Cejudo, this fight is about more than just love for the sport. It’s about vengeance and the opportunity to prove himself once again. With an impressive record of nine consecutive wins at 135-pounds, including victories over top contenders, Dvalishvili poses a formidable challenge for Cejudo at UFC 298.
But all will be revealed on February 17th as Cejudo squares off against Dvalishvili in what could be a career-defining matchup.”
