Is Henry Cejudo coming back to the limelight? 

The former UFC double champ has made it more than clear that he wants to get another slice of the pie that the promotion is having currently. A premature retirement seems to have re-invigorated ‘Triple C’, and hence, he wants another crack in the octagon.

Cejudo has called out various fighters since expressing his interest in coming back to the UFC spotlight. Unfortunately, things don’t look that good for Cejudo as he wants a title fight, but UFC President Dana White wants ‘Triple C’ to win a few bouts and earn a championship match.

Dana White stated that trash-talking on Twitter would not get Cejudo the fight he wanted. This seems to be something that Triple C isn’t too fond of.
