Chris Taylor - August 17, 2019

It is hard to imagine a scenario where mixed martial arts legend Jose Aldo would receive another shot at the UFC featherweight title. The longtime 145-pound kingpin, Aldo (28-5 MMA), has already suffered two TKO losses to reigning featherweight champion Max Holloway and most recently lost a unanimous decision to top division contender Alex Volkanovski.

Urijah Faber wonders whether or not Henry Cejudo truly wants to fight him. Back in June, Cejudo became a UFC “champ-champ.” He entered his UFC 238 headliner against Marlon Moraes as the flyweight champion. Once the smoke cleared, “Triple C” added the bantamweight gold to his mantle. After the fight, Cejudo called out the likes of Faber, Dominick Cruz, and Cody Garbrandt.

Many have dismissed the idea of Henry Cejudo vs. Urijah Faber, but Chael Sonnen isn’t one of them. Cejudo is a UFC “champ-champ.” He holds the flyweight and bantamweight gold. After his 135-pound title win over Marlon Moraes last month, Cejudo called out the likes of Dominick Cruz, Cody Garbrandt, and Faber. “The California Kid” made a successful return following a retirement that lasted over two years. He knocked out Ricky Simon in 46 seconds.

Michael Bisping is no stranger to saying things that are, shall we say, cause for debate. The former UFC middleweight champion and newest Hall of Famer looks to have done it again when it comes to current two-division champs Amanda Nunes and Henry Cejudo. Earlier this month, Cejudo joked that he wants to take every championship in the UFC — including those that belong to Amanda Nunes. Despite the comedic connotation attached to the statements of the reigning UFC flyweight and bantamweight champion, Bisping says he would love to see the fight.

After Henry Cejudo beat Marlon Moraes at UFC 238 to become the bantamweight champion he called out a bevy of names including Urijah Faber. Then, at UFC Sacramento, “The California Kid” knocked out Ricky Simon in 46 seconds and returned the favor by calling out Cejudo. Since the callouts, many are interested in seeing that fight and even the UFC Hall of Famer said the chances of the fight happening next are very good. According to Cejudo’s manager in Ali Abdelaziz, however, he doesn’t believe Urijah Faber deserves it and instead should fight Marlon Moraes for the chance to fight the champ-champ.

Michael Bisping wouldn’t be opposed to seeing Urijah Faber jump the line in the UFC bantamweight division. Back in Dec. 2016, Faber ended his professional mixed martial arts career. He walked off on his terms, defeating Brad Pickett via unanimous decision in Sacramento. Faber was later inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame. For Faber, however, the itch to compete didn’t go away.

When Henry Cejudo called out Urijah Faber following his TKO win over Marlon Moraes at UFC 238, we assumed it was the first time he called him out. Not so fast, says Faber, who returned the favor by calling out Cejudo following his upset win over Ricky Simon at UFC Sacramento. According to the UFC Hall of Famer, the bad blood between these two goes way back. The former WEC champ says that Cejudo vs. Faber is a fight a decade in the making.
