Well this is not the first time Cejudo has called out Dominic Cruz. After his victory over Marlon Moraes for the bantamweight championship, Henry Cejudo called out Dominic Cru in his post fight interview. And Cruz also seemed to interested for a fight with Cejudo too. Dominic Cruz has been out of the UFC for the last 3 years due to injury. Cruz last fought Cody Garbrandt with the title on line and failed to come out victorious. However, Dominic Cruz is arguably the greatest bantamweight of all time and a fight with him means not only a big payday for Cejudo but also another legend on his legend killing list.

We are aware that Dominic Cruz is looking to make another return after a long layoff. And Henry cejudo is currently looking for an opponent. So things seem to align for these two to have a super fight inside the octagon with each other. However, Cejudo needs to defend his flyweight title or he might have to vacate it as earlier said by UFC president, Dana White. Still Henry Cejudo vs Dominic Cruz has a super fight written all over it and it would be interesting to see how Dominic Cruz responds to Cejudo’s call out.
