Henry Cejudo is a former Olympic gold medalist and a retired mixed martial artist who has achieved great success in the UFC. He is considered to have the “Midas touch” because of his ability to turn everything he touches into gold.
Cejudo’s career in the UFC began in 2014 and he quickly made a name for himself by winning his first four fights. In 2016, he fought Demetrious Johnson for the flyweight title and was defeated, but he came back in 2018 to win the rematch and become the UFC flyweight champion.
Cejudo’s success didn’t stop there as he then moved up in weight class to compete for the UFC bantamweight title against Marlon Moraes. Despite being the underdog, Cejudo won the fight and became the UFC’s fourth “champ champ,” holding two titles in two weight classes simultaneously.
Cejudo’s career was marked by his impressive wrestling skills, but he also developed a strong striking game and was known for his ability to adapt to his opponents’ strengths and weaknesses.
Cejudo announced his retirement from MMA in 2020, but his impact on the sport and his status as a UFC legend are undeniable.
