“I’ll See You Soon” – Cody Garbrandt Sends Henry Cejudo a Warning
Follow Us
Cody Garbrandt was once touted as one of the best fighters on the UFC roster. After his recent failure at the Bantamweight division, he wishes to drop down a weight class.
When the former 125 pounds champ got wind of the arrival of a former champ in his division, he couldn’t help but welcome him. Henry Cejudo told Cody that the latter wouldn’t have an easy path in the Flyweight division.
Garbrandt saw it fit to fire back at “Triple C”. He tweeted that the champ is the one who always calls the shots. Hence, if Cejudo wants to fight Cody, then the latter will have to fight the former Olympic champion. He added that irrespective of the weight class, the champion always faces a tough road.
