Henry Cejudo Cements His Greatness with 32-Second Win over TJ Dillashaw
Henry Cejudo has beaten two champions in a row. But even that almost wasn't enough.
The first win was last August, when he eked out a grindfest to dethrone Demetrious Johnson, the UFC flyweight champion and king of many a pound-for-pound leaderboard.
The second came Saturday night and UFC Fight Night 143, when he knocked off bantamweight beltholder TJ Dillashaw, who cut down to 125 pounds for the opportunity to be a two-division champ.
Even so, Cejudo (14-2) might have been shunted aside, dinged for a boring style and what many view as an oddball persona.
