Henry is just itching to see how this fight plays out, and BW is shallow in terms of clear top contenders. Henry will fight for the title next I guarantee it.

He's better than Mighty Mouse? I'm not so sure.

I wouldn't say he's better than MM. They are 1-1.
Cejudo won by closely outpointing MM to a decision. MM starched him in their first fight.

But anyways, MM plays video games for a living and fights on another planet now, and I do agree that Cejudo will probably come back and take the belt
 
BW is the deepest division and has plenty of contenders. The UFC cut bait as soon as Cejudo retired, they don't care about him like Khabib

My prediction is your prediction will be wrong. The winner of Sandhagen/Dillashaw is the next person fighting for the title
 
Henry Cejudo would have to come back to the negotiating table and hold off of his pie in the sky dreams of making Conor money. Would be great for the fans to see him back though.


Ideal scenario imo:

Yan / Sterling winner vs Cejudo

winner of that faces winner of Sandhagen / Dillashaw
 
Cejudo is like izzy, fun to watch when fighting but you stay away from anything that even resembles interviews, promos and social media posts.
I hope he comes back and takes the belt again.

Lmfaoooo.

He didnt out point shit...DJ won that fight 4 rounds to 1 or 3 to 2 if your being generous...

That to me is still the worst judged fight in UFC history or the clearest example of corruption with in the UFC ..one or the other

Lmao that was an easy 3-2 for Cejudo.
 
Would like to see Cejudo come back. He is an excellent fighter and would add some more excitement to an already strong group of high level fighters at 135.

Bahahaha. ..

Watch again noob , cejudo did nothing with his takedowns except for a brief moment in 1 round..

Other then that DJ controlled it and out struck and grappled Cejudo...

Stop swinging on them nuts its embarassing

Worst in history? There has to be something worse. Worst judging in a UFC title fight? Definitely the worst this side of Machida vs Shogun 1. Those judges should have to explain their scoring based on the criteria in the Unified Rules. Then that should be judged by 21 knowledgeable MMA experts like trainers, referees & retired fighters. A 2/3rds vote of non confidence and that judge has to go to a training course and be relegated to the minor leagues for a minimum of 1 year.

Cejudo's retirement was an awful decision, as he was peaking, and now his momentums got to be waning.

It's funny because Frank Shamrock pulled the same thing (wasting some of his best years), and he looks just like the mini Frank.

Can you break that down round by round and justify the scoring based on the NEW Unified Rules that were in place at that time?

Rounds 1-3 DJ out struck Henry by a wide margin each round.
1 st rd 21-4, 2nd rd 30-19, 3rd rd 32-12. Henry only had 1 TD in those 3 rounds. He had 1:29 of "Control" in the 2nd. That does not make up for the striking differential.

The 4th and 5th were much closer in striking with an 18-22 and 20-23 margin respectively in favour of Henry. Henry had 2:14 of "Control" in the 4th and 0:46 in the 5th. Control that doesn't lead to much of a margin in striking or damage isn't worth a lot but if its close then it becomes the tie breaker. So I can see giving Henry the 4th and 5th.

What rounds did you give Henry and why?
*Note the Bold and Underlined re TDs

Scoring Criteria
PRIORITIZED CRITERIA: Effective Striking/Grappling
“Legal blows that have immediate or cumulative impact with the potential to contribute towards the end of the match with the IMMEDIATE weighing in more heavily than the cumulative impact. Successful execution of takedowns, submission attempts, reversals and the achievement of advantageous positions that produce immediate or cumulative impact with the potential to contribute to the end of the match, with the IMMEDIATE weighing more heavily than the cumulative impact.” It shall be noted that a successful takedown is not merely a changing of position, but the establishment of an attack from the use of the takedown. Top and bottom position fighters are assessed more on the impactful/effective result of their actions, more so than their position. This criterion will be the deciding factor in a high majority of decisions when scoring a round. The next two criteria must be treated as a backup and used ONLY when Effective Striking/Grappling is 100% equal for the round.

Would love to see a peer rated judges council...

Machida shogun was bad too ...but a much harder fight to score...imo also profile matters ..shogun vs machida was the bigger fight so people remember it more but watch dj vs cejudo 2 again and its clear as day

DJ vs Cejudo was much more easier to score if you kkow what the fuck ur looking at...

lol @ a razor thin decision being "the worst judged fight in history". That fight was the definition of winning a razor-thin decision by outpointing your opponent

Dude you talk like a 12 year old playing Call of Duty. Stop calling people noob and calm the fuck down
 
Dana doesn’t want to be in the Henry Cejudo business


He is a flight risk
He wants more than they want to pay him
He doesn’t sell enough to justify the risk
