“I know what I used to do to him in sparring,” Henry Cejudo says of UFC champ Brandon Moreno.

    I wish Cejudo would have stayed retired and told bedtime stories to the remnants of his gold medal he lost in that fire.

    Summary:

    • Moreno called Cejudo out right after Cejudo’s fight with Aljo
    • Cejudo prefers that Moreno moves up to bantamweight rather than him dropping down to flyweight. But he is willing to go down if the UFC pays him.
    • There is bad blood between Cejudo and Moreno stemming from a sense of betrayal, as Cejudo did not select Moreno for his team on “The Ultimate Fighter” and Moreno ended up training with Cejudo’s rival -Joseph Benavidez.
    • Cejudo has trained and mentored Moreno’s rival Deiveson Figueiredo in the past.
    • Cejudo sees their potential matchup as a great storyline, with Moreno being the “baby face” and himself as the “heel.”
    • Cejudo is ready for the fight if the UFC offers a lucrative deal, saying, “Show me the money, let’s make it happen, baby.”
