Henry Cejudo
You were with me for my last Olympic trials, and you’ve been there for me, but as of right now, I just want to let you know that for this camp, dude, I’m getting rid of specific coaches – and that’s you included. Sometimes you get too close to somebody and people just get too comfortable. Right now, what I want to do in this fight camp is keep it strictly business.
Cejudo last fought against Aljamain Sterling in May 2023 at UFC 288. In that fight, Henry was defeated by split decision. He has 16 wins and three losses on his record.
Dvalishvili last stepped into the octagon against Petr Yan in March 2023 at UFC Fight Night 221. That fight went the full distance and ended in Merab's favor by unanimous decision of the judges. He has 16 wins and four losses on his record.
