Ok several observations before i go to sleep.
1. Cejudo makes this weight class seem as interesting as the heavier ones. Used to be I heard a Demetrius PPV was coming up and it seemed like a crime to make that shit a ppv.
Cejudo is officially a guy you can build a ppv around of, in very surprised
2. Cejudo could have wrestled a bit more but his belief in his stand up and in himself in general is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. The man was last at the wrestling championships one year before he won the Olympic gold medal, he was humiliated by DJ then came back to beat him. Now he is making crazy career choices (like going straight from DJ to TJ to Morais) and pulling it off. Just think of the last 3 guys he beat.
3. Cejudos biggest striking advantage is his big ass head apparently made of cement, what the fuck?
4. The more he wins the louder he gets, the cringier he gets but also the better he gets. He is simply better every time he fights.
5. About Moraes, he didn’t simply gas. Cejudo upped the pace in the second round and hurt him with a punch, moraes never recovered from the cejudo adjustment and it seemed to do a number on his head because he seemed confused, he didn’t even realize he needed to get the fuck away from knees. Then they grappled a bit and while he did try a nice armbar, cejudo is just in a different category in that area, that anaconda was nice to see.
6. Faber? What the fuck? I don’t know when cejudo is being serious anymore. 145lbs? I mean at this point I’ll never say no to whatever he tries. Hell, sign up for judo and go for a medal in Tokyo 2020 for all I care he may even pull it off, he’s just that type of person. But fucking Faber?
