Henry Cejudo's reign as a two-division UFC champion will come to an end when he relinquishes the flyweight crown.
Per MMA Junkie's Mike Bohn, the UFC intends to take the 125-pound title from Cejudo to put it on the line in a proposed matchup between Joseph BenavidezandDeiveson Figueiredo being eyed for the Feb. 29 UFC on ESPN+ event.
Cejudo told Bohn he's forfeiting the title: “No, I am not being stripped. I am relinquishing my title. Correction! 'Triple C' is relinquishing his title to these wannabe, so-called flyweight kingpins. That's what's going on. I'm relinquishing my belt.
