“Talking SH*T on Instagram” Won’t Earn You Conor McGregor Fight, Dana White Warns Henry Cejudo

Henry Cejudo and Conor McGregor going back and forth on social media had their cringe-worthy moments but were nevertheless entertaining. Ironically, Henry Cejudo’s trash talk game reached a peak after he retired from the fight game. While he’s desperate to get back into the octagon against big names, Dana White isn’t too amused by these stunts that Triple C is trying to pull. 

Cejudo posted a video of him doing some pad work while Mike Tyson trained him. Despite receiving underwhelming responses, this does not take away from the fact that Cejudo has re-entered the USADA pool and is trying to materialize a return to the octagon.
