“I wanted to remind you that Hollywood can officially go to its knees because I will be one of the executive producers. That's right, I'm going to be one of the producers of one of the best combat sports movies of all time. The name of the film is 'In Full Bloom'. I don't want to tell you the rest, because I want you to watch the promotional videos. Stay tuned. It will be one of the best films in history. Stay inspired,” said Cejudo, in a video released on Twitter.
One of the biggest names in recent UFC history, Cejudo is retired, but has already admitted he is willing to return to action. In recent months, the former UFC flyweight (up to 56,7kg) and bantamweight (up to 61,2kg) champion has been asking for a confrontation against Alexander Volkanovsky.
The challenge to the current leader of the featherweight division (up to 65,7kg.) comes with an unprecedented objective in the organization: to win a third title in the company. Recently, the president of the event, Dana White, did not rule out the superfight, but admits that he has other names at an advantage for a clash against the Australian.
Henry's last fight took place in May 2020. At the time, the American defended his old bantamweight belt against Dominick Cruz. After knocking out the group's former champion, 'Triplo C', still in the octagon, announced his retirement.
Hollywood is next to bend the knee! Stay tuned for the best combat movie of all time. In Full Bloom 🏆🏆🏆https://t.co/pWvRcrgL6g pic.twitter.com/6ITTIQg0J5
