“He’s on Some S***!” – Henry Cejudo Rips Into TJ Dillashaw

UFC bantamweight champion, Henry Cejudo is ashamed of fighting with TJ Dillashaw.

Cejudo is one of the greatest combat sports athletes of all time. With wins over Demetrious Johnson, TJ Dillashaw, and Marlon Moraes, he can stake a claim at the GOAT status.

While most of his competitors admitted that he was the better man during their fight, Dillashaw has a theory of his own. The former two-time bantamweight champion believes that Cejudo did not finish him and the fight was stopped prematurely.

However, that was not the only story surrounding the fight. A few days later, news broke out that TJ tested positive for EPO, the same substance which Lance Armstrong used during his cycling career.

As a result, TJ was suspended for two years. He will only be eligible to fight in January of 2021. Although it is months away, TJ has stated his intentions to fight for the title immediately. While most people would like that rematch, the ‘King of Cringe’ does not even consider it.

Henry Cejudo will not fight TJ Dillashaw again

“People will never know until you cheated on them,” Cejudo said during the  UFC 249 Virtual Media Day. “It’s an honor to fight someone in the octagon. I was so embarrassed (for competing with TJ). I feel dirty.

“You shake hands with somebody. You guys go out and compete, and the next thing you know, he’s on some sh**…I don’t even think I ever wanna fight that dude again. And I truly mean that. He’s gotta get his mind, he’s gotta be fair. He’s gotta go through the line. Who knows how long he’s been doing this for.”

On Saturday, Cejudo will go one-on-one with arguably the greatest bantamweight of all time. ‘Triple C’ will defend his title against the former bantamweight champion, Dominick Cruz.

Realistically speaking, the fight is a tough one for both. Cruz with his awkward footwork and elusive striking can pose a serious threat to the champion. Cejudo, on the other hand, is an Olympic wrestler who does not shy away from striking. He has immense power in his hands as well.

Who do you think will win at UFC 249? Will it be Henry Cejudo or Dominick Cruz?
