Henry Cejudo continues to demean Sean O’Malley after the latter’s crushing defeat against Marlon Vera in the co-main event of UFC 252 on August 15.
Since O’Malley’s undefeated run has been crushed, he has been at the receiving end of a lot of criticism from his fellow UFC contemporaries. From Cody Garbrandt to Henry Cejudo, all of O’Malley’s targeted opponents have bit back at him.
However, ‘Triple C’ Cejudo seems to be in a different league. He has been loading a string of attacks with several tweets to belittle the 25-year-old O’Malley.

Cejudo further allured the netizens by comparing his actions with O’Malley’s in a similar situation.
Cejudo retweeted a video and reminisced how he fought Demetrious Johnson and Marlon Moraes with a battered leg. To intensify the whole scenario, he added, “This two pump chump broke his nail and can’t compete.”

Sean O’Malley is a young rising superstar, possessing a number of skills. Before UFC 252, he was the absolute hype train for the promotion.
Although he has faced a mere setback in his career, ‘The Sugar’ has the potential to bounce back stronger. He is still recognized as a top-dog in the bantamweight division. Thus, a couple of wins will bring him back into the title race.
