Even though Henry Cejudo hung his gloves up for good, Triple C is at the center of a series of challenges and call-outs like any other active contender.
That said, Sean O’Malley has appeared desperate about facing ‘The Triple C’ in recent times. With Cejudo’s exit from the promotion, Petr Yan and Deiveson Figueiredo has already notched his respective bantamweight and flyweight titles.
Thus, the divisions are moving at a rapid pace. Now, O’Malley has intensified the entire scenario by stating that he would be the one to bring Cejudo out of retirement.
