Sean O'Malley urges Henry Cejudo to win at UFC 288 please win so i can beat the f*ck out of you

Sean O’Malley has made it very clear who he wishes to win this weekend, pleading with Triple C Henry Cejudo to beat current champion, Aljamain Sterling in tonight’s UFC 288 headliner.

With the bantamweight fight between Cejudo and Sterling rapidly approaching, it’s no surprise the man who could be in next for a title shot makes his opinion heard on who he wishes to win. Having had back and forth with both fighters in the past, O’Malley has clearly stated he wants Cejudo next.

Henry Cejudo returns to action after announcing his retirement in 2020 when he took on Bantamweight great, Dominick Cruz. Since that time he has spent the majority coaching fighters from UFC to the regional level indicating he has picked up a wealth of knowledge in that time that will show major benefit in his upcoming fight just hours away.

Calling for his shot at bantamweight spoils next, number two ranked contender, O’Malley urged Cejudo to win so they can share the Octagon with each other.

“Henry (Cejudo) please win so i can beat the f*ck out of you,” Sean O’Malley tweeted.

Aljamain Sterling has had a weird time as champion winning the belt off of a controversial illegal knee, defending it in a close decision then fighting an injured TJ Dillashaw where many fans have disrespected the Jamaican champion as a result. But with a clear-cut win over Cejudo it would be very hard to take anything away from Sterling who will then of defended his title three times against three different former champions and arguably the division’s greatest of all time.

Sean O’Malley’s rise to fame

O’Malley recently won a split decision against former UFC champion Petr Yan, the fight was not meant to go the way of O’Malley but he more than proved that he does in fact belong at the highest level. He has since seen himself be etched down as the number one contender with him most likely facing the winner of the title fight tonight. And with a pivotal rise to fame that has massively rose O’Malley’s stock since debuting in the UFC in 2018 unless you count his DWCS appearance with a viral KO and then win on the Ultimate Fighter 26 finale.

Should it be Sean O’Malley who faces Cejudo next should he win back the title tonight?

Undisputed UFC middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya is picking current bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling to retain his title tonight in the main event of UFC 288, noting a stern dislike for former duel-weight champion and incoming challenger, Henry Cejudo. 

Adesanya, a two-time and current undisputed middleweight champion, managed to regain the throne himself back in April at UFC 287, stopping arch-rival, Alex Pereira with a second round knockout to win undisputed spoils in Miami, Florida. 

As for Cejudo, the Los Angeles-born challenger makes his first Octagon walk in over three years tonight at the Prudential Center, having called time on his illustrious career off the back of a 2020 knockout win against former champion, Dominick Cruz.

Israel Adesanya hits out at Henry Cejudo ahead of UFC 288 comeback

Offering his thoughts and breakdown on tonight’s undisputed bantamweight title fight, Adesanya picked Uniondale native, Sterling to leave Newark, New Jersey with his title in tow – blasting Cejudo in the process, however.

“I’m gonna pick ‘Aljo’ because I don’t like Henry (Cejudo),” Israel Adesanya said on his YouTube channel. “See, I don’t have to make no bullsh*t up and try to justify it. I’ll just say I don’t like the munchkin, I don’t like Henry Cejudo, Yeah, I said your name, Little f*cking b*tch.”

“For me, it’s like, for such a smart man he lets his emotions cloud his judgment and he starts to get real hater vibes because he thinks that me being great takes away from his greatness,” Israel Adesanya explained. “I’m like, nah. You’re great in your own lane. You do your f*cking thing. You can do your f*cking thing, king – cringe king.” 

Expected to return later this year, City Kickboxing mainstay, Adesanya has been earmarked to defend his middleweight throne in a title outing against either Robert Whittaker, or Dricus du Plessis in Syndey, Australia.

Henry Cejudo

Former two-division champion Henry Cejudo had an interesting incident with Kron Gracie during a UFC 288 poster signing session.

Fight week can be a very stressful time for fighters. In addition to grueling weight cuts for some, the obligation to participate in interviews, open workouts, and press conferences can cause some real agitation. That was apparently on display as Henry Cejudo arrived to sign posters alongside Kron Gracie. Both men are scheduled to take part in Saturday’s festivities with ‘Triple C’ stepping into the main event spotlight once again for a UFC bantamweight title tilt opposite reigning champion Aljamain Sterling.

Captured by UFC Embedded and shared on Twitter by Combat Sports Today, Kron Gracie was clearly in no mood to deal with Henry Cejudo’s classic cringe.

Cejudo: Is Nate coming?

Gracie: No, it’s his kid’s birthday.

Cejudo: Oh ya (laughs). Nate. God, I’m good looking (as Cejudo signs more posters)

Graice: When he’s done, let me know.

Cejudo: Nah, he said when I’m done. Is he mad at me?

UFC staffer: I think you are taking too long.

Cejudo: Me?

Henry Cejudo Ready to Resume His Reign Over the Bantamweight Division

Henry Cejudo was quick to dismiss the negative vibes coming from Gracie, suggesting that the featherweight standout was likely having a difficult time cutting weight for his main card contest with Charles Jourdain. Earning three-straight wins under the RIZIN banner, Gracie first appeared with the UFC in 2019 and scored a first-round submission victory over Alex Caceres. Eight months later, he would suffer a unanimous decision defeat against Cub Swanson in what would be his first and only career loss thus far.

Nearly four years removed from his last appearance inside the Octagon, Gracie returns to resume his mixed martial arts career against Canadian standout Charles Jourdain.

As for Henry Cejudo, the Olympic gold medalist is back for his first fight in three years. Capturing both the UFC bantamweight and featherweight championships, ‘Triple C’ successfully defended the former against division staple Dominick Cruz at UFC 249. Following his second round knockout of ‘The Dominator’, Cejudo officially hung up his gloves, vacating both titles in the process.

36 months later, Henry Cejudo is back and ready to resume his reign at the top of the 135-pound division.
