Henry Cejudo has reserved himself a spot in the hall of fame after becoming a two-division champion. However, cementing his legacy in MMA is not enough for The King of Cringe. The Messenger is now eyeing the featherweight crown.

Due to which, the reigning UFC featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski finds himself in a feud with Cejudo. Because Triple C has gone out of his way to vex “The Great”. Cejduo claims he has set his eyes on becoming Quadruple C.

However, the former Rugby player being the confident and outspoken fighter that he is looks to be more than willing to engage with Cejudo. Both in a verbal and physical war.

As one may have guessed, it did not take Cejudo too long to hit back at Volkanovski for his comments.

“What’s going to be more embarrassing is when you lose to a flyweight you overgrown midget! This ain’t Hugby!”- Henry Cejudo on Twitter

The notion of a fighter competing at three different weight divisions. However, the bantamweight king is big enough to challenge the likes of Volkanovski. Cejudo stands at 1.63m and Volkanovski at 1.68m.

However, it may have been different if Cejudo was to take on the likes of Max Holloway or Zabit Magomedsharipov.

Alexander Volkanovski Thinks Henry Cejudo is Ducking Top Contenders

Volkanovski recently took a shot at Cejudo, ridiculing him for defending his title against veterans of the sport like Jose Aldo and Dominick Cruz. Instead of taking on the top contenders in his division.

“It seems like he’s challenging everyone but his No. 1 contenders, so whatever. I think that’s just embarrassing. I really do believe that. he’s just trying to hold onto that bantamweight belt. So if he moves up, he knows I’ll kick his ass, but he’ll still get to hang onto that bantamweight belt a bit longer.”- Alexander Volkanovski to MMA Junkie
