Johny Hendricks has knocked out two of his last three opponents in decisive fashion. That obviously hasn’t made Jake Ellenberger a believer.
Ellenberger tweeted UFC President Dana White following the UFC 154 fight.
“IF Johnny Hendricks beats me @danawhite, Cut me & I will be a man of my word & NEVER fight again.”
Ellenberger (28-6) was on a six fight winning streak prior to being derailed at The Ultimate Fighter Live Finale by Martin Kampmann. He won his most recent fight at UFC on FX: Browne vs. Silva against Jay Hieron.
Hendricks (14-1) has won five in a row and is inching ever so closely to a welterweight title shot.
