Henry Cejudo isn’t retiring, which means he will be looking for an opponent soon. The former two-division UFC champion has an elbow injury concern stemming from his last outing against Merab Dvalishvili at UFC 298 that he wants to clear up, but when it comes time to make the walk to the octagon again, “Triple C” knows who he wants to stand across. “There’s still that (Sean) O’Malley fight,” Cejudo said in a video on his YouTube channel . “I still don’t think O’Malley’s going to get past ‘Chito.’ We could potentially headline something like that in Phoenix.” O’Malley is set to defend his bantamweight title against Marlon Vera in the main event of UFC 299 at Kaseya Center in Miami. However, Cejudo believes O’Malley will lose his title that evening, making an easier path for a potential fresh matchup in the division.
