Former UFC two-weight champion has speculated that current league lightweight champion Aljamain Sterling may withdraw from their upcoming fight, which is scheduled for May 6 at UFC 288.

Is Sterling ready? Does he really want it? Honestly, I'm really not sure Aljamain wants it. So I can say something to Sean O'Malley - be prepared. Of course, as soon as the fight is officially announced, I'll be preparing for Sterling. But in the meantime, I have concerns about Sterling not showing up.
Cejudo had his last fight against Dominick Cruz in May 2020 at UFC 249. In that fight, Henry won by TKO in the second round. He has 16 wins and two losses under his belt.
Sterling last stepped into the Octagon against T.J. Dillashaw in October 2022 at UFC 280. That fight, which was stopped in the second round, ended in favor of Aljamain by TKO. He has 22 wins and three losses under his belt.
