Former double champion, Henry Cejudo he already knows what he needs to do to once again have a chance to add new chapters to his legacy in the UFC. Amid public feuds, the organization's president, Dana White, spoke about the possible return and highlighted that 'Triple C' needs to look for another alternative to justify its interest in fighting against Alexander Volkanovsky for the featherweight belt (up to 65,7kg.).

“The point is that Cejudo is retired. If you really want to fight Volkanovski, you don't have to try to provoke on social media, but pick up the phone and understand what you need to do to get back – to understand the process of the division, of USADA – and that's how you start to prepare the return. His manager (Ali Abdelaziz) has 280 thousand fighters signed to the UFC, Cejudo has been here forever. If you really want to fight, make some calls and understand instead of calling people names on Twitter and hoping we're going to call for a fight,” said Dana in an interview with 'Yahoo Sports'.
Considered one of the greatest fighters of Ultimate's recent years, Cejudo retired at just 33 years old in May 2020. Former bantamweight (up to 61,2kg) and featherweight (up to 65,7kg) champion, Henry hung up his gloves with a record of 16 triumphs and two setbacks in professional MMA.
