CHICAGO – For the first time this week, the fighters on the UFC 238 card got face to face Thursday. All the athletes fighting in the UFC’s return to “The Windy City” squared off at a media day for the card at United Center. The same venue hosts Saturday’s event, which has a main card on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+/UFC Fight Pass. In the main event, there was no love lost already between flyweight champion Henry Cejudo (14-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) and challenger Marlon Moraes (22-5-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC), who fight for the vacant bantamweight title. Cejudo is trying to become the fourth fighter in UFC history to hold two belts at the same time. Now it’s going to have even more heat after Cejudo showed up wearing a magician’s cape, pulled a rabbit out of his hat and taunted Moraes’ “Magic” nickname before they got face to face.
