‘I Had to Bend the Knee’- Henry Cejudo Details Marriage Proposal with Fiancé Ana Karolina

Former UFC champion Henry Cejudo sat down with Helen Yee and spoke out on his engagement to his fiancé, Ana Karolina. The news came soon after a baby reveal party that Cejudo had held down in Brazil.

The MMA community has been glued in on Henry Cejudo’s love life as he actively posts on social media. Furthermore, settling down and starting a family was a big part of Henry Cejudo’s decision to step away from the UFC. In conversation with Helen Yee, he detailed the last few months of his relationship, integrating his catchphrase in a way only he could.

“Again, this is the girl that I’ve been crushing on for 5-6 years, she’s actually right here. My second girlfriend ever and I proposed to her. She got pregnant, and we did a baby reveal party in Brazil. Now they’re able to do it through the blood to find out like the sex of the baby. Yeah, it’s a trip. At that time, I believe she was 2 and half months pregnant, she’s 4 now.”

“So right before we did the baby reveals, and we popped the balloon and they hand me the mic, and then I’m sorry to say everybody but I had to bend the knee. That’s the only time I’ll bend the knee. I told her how much I love her, how much she means to me, and that I want her to be the happiest woman on earth. To make me the happiest guy on earth, that’s the whole purpose.”

Henry Cejudo: Will he make a return to combat sports?

At the time of his retirement following UFC 249, fans believed that Cejudo’s hiatus from the sport would be short-lived. However, it’s clear that he’ll only be making a return if the right opportunity comes his way.

There are several marquee names who would make blockbuster bouts with Cejudo, including featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski. ‘Triple C’ has expressed an interest to take on Volkanovski and it’s now up to the UFC to put that fight together.

Alexander ‘The Great’ has his hands full at the moment with several contenders waiting in the wings. Things change quickly in MMA, and Henry Cejudo is an opportunist in every sense of the word.
