Joseph Benavidez, on the cusp of fighting for the UFC flyweight title, just wants some answers.
Benavidez, a longtime contender in the division, should be next in line for current 125-pound champion Henry Cejudo. The problem is, Cejudo is still injured and doesn’t know himself if he wants to fight at flyweight again. Cejudo is also the promotion’s bantamweight titleholder.
Benavidez is happy to wait for when Cejudo is ready to fight again, but if “The Messenger” has no real intent to return to the weight class, Benavidez wants him to say so to allow the division to move on.
