Marlon Moraes on Henry Cejudo’s karate stance: ‘If he stands like that, he’s going to pay’

With an Olympic wrestling gold medal around his neck and a UFC flyweight title, which he won from former pound-for-pound best Demetrious Johnson, the charismatic Cejudo has already cemented himself as one of the most talented combat athletes on the planet.

But against Moraes, a former WSOF champion, the man known as “The Messenger” will look to make more history as they go to battle in the main event of UFC 238 for the vacant UFC bantamweight title.
