Henry Cejudo prepares for comeback fight in Seattle after three-year hiatus

bloodyelbow.com

Henry Cejudo returns to the Octagon on February 22 in Seattle, seeking his first win since May 2020. After a three-year retirement, he faced two losses upon his return against Merab Dvalishvili and Aljamain Sterling. Cejudo acknowledges that his biggest challenge has been regaining his ability to recover during fights after the long break. He aims to overcome this issue as he prepares to face Song Yadong, who is 11 years younger. Both fighters have the same number of UFC bouts, but Cejudo has more championship experience. This experience may play a key role if the fight goes into the later rounds.
