This is from a Podcast in Spain so will translate/summarize what Brandon said


A few years ago Cejudo brought in Brandon as a training partner to help him with Jujitsu for a fight. Brandon said Cejudo was nice to him. Paid him for sparring work, food and helped fly out Brandons gf to be with him.

Brandon always thought him and Cejudo had a good relationship. Then when Cejudo and Benavides became TUF coaches things changed.

Brandon made it on the show too and coaches have to pick fighters for there team. Cejudo had the choice to pick Brandon Moreno. He instead picked Pantoja. Which broke Brandons heart, and he ended up being with Joseph Benavides. Brandon said he was sad about it for two days but he started to realize how great Joseph was to him as a coach.

Even after Brandon lost on TUF, he said Joseph showed him alot of love and still trained him. Usually when fighters lose on TUF they become an after thought to the coaches. But not with Benavidez who kept helping him improve.

After Show ended Brandon stayed Friends with Joseph. Fast forward to a UFC event in Mexico City where alot of Brandons teammates/coaching staff left for to Mexico city for some fights. Brandon Moreno was left alone in Tijuana to train.

Cejudo was preparing for fight with Joseph Benavides for TUF finale. Cejudo brought in Pantoja and was in Arizona. Brandon obviously didn’t want to go back to train with Cejudo after the betrayal.

Brandon got invited to Joseph Benavides training camp against Cejudo and went. Ever since then Henry has called him a traitor. Which is a load of bullshit.

And now Cejudo is helping Deveison Figuredo in Trilogy to beat Brandon. So once again Cejudo is trying to screw over Brandon.

Brandon straight up tells Henry Cejudo “Fuck you” on this podcast lol. He doesnt like Henry.

TLDR: Cejudo is a liar, a snake and hes betraying the Mexicans…his own people by training Deveison. Also Low key Cejudos probably Jealous of how loved Brandon is by UFC, Mexican and American fans.
 
Nice and neat cliffs! Thanks for this TS.

Hope this is all just PR moves to gain attention for his next fight and just something to make people talk about him. I always thought he and CCC have that respect for each other. This was taken after Moreno's title win

I didn't watch the interview but I hope Brandon has enough intelligence and self awareness to understand why it is not a "betrayal" for a Mexican-American like Henry to train a Brazilian athlete like Figueiredo.

Henry also chose to represent the United States in the Olympics, the country he was born and raised in, rather than a neighboring country that his parents left to seek a better life.

Brandon seems to come from a nice upper-middle-class family, so it is certainly understandable why his experiences are different from those of Henry whose parents ostensibly left Mexico due to cyclical poverty.

Cejudo can and should train any athlete he thinks is worth his time irrespective of their immutable characteristics.

Cejudo wants to derail Brandon, which is Mexicos first champ. Cejudo always presented himself as both an America and Mexican fighter. Always talked about his pride in being Mexican and his struggles blah blah. Yet here he is doing this shit.

Mexican fans should not support Henry Cejudo anymore.
 
This had PR stunt written all over it, thats how CCC works to try to stay relevant.

That shit was nice and akward at the same time, Moreno's walkout "language" feels like he just ignored Cejudo was being polite to him, like "im to happy to deal with this guy" kind of vibe.

PS: Its common to call UFC belts "gold" in English, but that's not common in Spanish, Cejudo being the american that he is, he just translated it into Spanish.

I really dont think this is promotion because Brandon went on a long rant about it and got a bit emotional. He straight up said “fuck you” to Cejudo lol. Brandon got especially agitated when Interviewer asked him about Cejudo training Deveison. He brushed it off saying what can Cejudo show Deveison in few months

This whole thing makes Cejudo look bad, this is real life bros

Mexicans don't care about Mexican Americans. Cejudo will never be loved like Moreno is.
This. Its kind of like how Mexicans saw Cain....Yea he was mexican but damn did he lose his whole mexican fan base when werdum spoke spanish perfectly .
 
There is an alternate universe somewhere with a FLW division that still includes DJ and Cejudo — plus Moreno, Figgy, Askarov, Pantoja and now Garbrandt. Maybe even Dodson, Horiguchi, Pettis, etc. *sighs*

Whats the chances this is all manifactured bullshit pr to entice the brainlets into tuning in ala WWE. People interested in the skill off fighting are greatly outnumbered by drama addicted teenagers. The very same cunts who posted "I backing ConMan" on their Facebook profiles

All sounds reasonable. And CCC doesn't seem like a reliable source whatsoever - he's too busy being 'edgy' or trolling for clicks.

Thanks TS.

CCC lives and breathes WWE bullshit. Thrives on it in fact.

Whereas Moreno seems pretty normal, grounded. Not that I know him or anything, but that's my lens from 10,000 feet.

Not from his side, PR from CCC's, Moreno has all the right to be mad at him after he didnt got picked by Cejudo on TUF.
