Henry Cejudo can add UFC gold to his resume after an upset victory over Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson via split decision in the co-main event of UFC 227 from the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Josh Gross48-47 Cejudo, 48-47 Johnson, 48-47 Cejudo. Wow. Huge result. Demetrious Johnson isn't flyweight champion for the first time since 2012. South Central's own Henry Cejudo is UFC champion. Historic.
Cejudo got off to a rough start, as his left ankle appeared to roll in the early going of Round 1, forcing him to switch stances and impacting his movement.
