Henry Cejudo wants all the gold. Even in the UFC’s women’s division. Over the weekend, there was a lot of talk about the dominance of UFC women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko.

“The Bullet” successfully defended her title against Liz Carmouche in the main event of UFC Uruguay on Saturday, taking home a lopsided unanimous decision win. After hearing about all the praise Shevchenko has been receiving, bantamweight and flyweight champion Cejudo decided to chime in.

“The King Of Cringe” took to Twitter and called out Shevchenko to an intergender fight, claiming he wants to win her women’s 125-pound title as well, as he already holds the men’s belt in the weight class.

“So I’m out here enjoying my beautiful Sunday here in beautiful Las Vegas,” Cejudo said. “But my phone just keeps blowing up, that somebody by the name of Valentina “The Bullet” Shevchenko is the most dominant champion in the world. And guess what? I get a little jelly.

“Because she has gold and I want that gold. Valentina Shevchenko, I have a message for you. I’m looking to become the first intergender world champion this world has ever seen. I’m calling you out. You can be the next to bend the knee to “Triple C.””

Henry Cejudo Issues Warning To Frankie Edgar After Bantamweight Move

Frankie Edgar has made news of his move to bantamweight official. Following a failed bid at 145 pounds for gold, “The Answer” will be dropping down to 135 pounds, a weight class many feel is a more natural fit for the former 155-pound champion.

Frankie Edgar has made news of his move to bantamweight official. Following a failed bid at 145 pounds for gold, “The Answer” will be dropping down to 135 pounds, a weight class many feel is a more natural fit for the former 155-pound champion.

However, amidst that move, the announcement has garnered a reaction from current flyweight and bantamweight champion Henry Cejudo. Cejudo took to his Twitter account to issue a warning to Edgar, who the double champ advised to “bend the knee to ‘Triple C.’”

“So I’m out here getting my recovery done at the UFC PI, as I’m going to be out for a minute. And I start hearing these littler birdies saying that Frankie “The Answer” Edgar wants to come down to my weight class. Frankie, you’re 0-5 in your last title fights. What makes you think you coming down to my weight class will be any different?

“Do me a favor, when you win at MSG, I want you to call me out. One, because I know you’re gold thirsty and you want my belt. Two, I just know you just don’t like me. But until then, Frankie “The Answer” Edgar, you can do me a favor, and you can bend the knee to “Triple C” too.”

Cejudo is currently nursing an injured shoulder that will keep him out-of-action until 2020. His last bout resulted in a bantamweight title win, when he finished Marlon Moraes to capture the vacant strap. It will be interesting to see which of Cejudo’s titles he decides to defend first upon his return. There are plenty of worthy contenders in both weight classes.

What do you think about a potential bout between Cejudo and Edgar at bantamweight?
