Former two-division UFC champion shuts down future in Conor McGregor’s BKFC

Henry Cejudo won’t consider BKFC move after confirmation of his final UFC fight

The sport of bare-knuckle boxing continues to grow, having gained more prominence since Conor McGregor became a BKFC part-owner.

‘The Notorious’ has since had a number of memorable moments involving the promotion’s talent, including former UFC stars like Mike Perry and Jeremy Stephens.

But it would seem that there is little to no chance of Cejudo joining that list by also crossing over to BKFC following his expected final foray into the cage this December.

“That’s a f—- sport where I’m just like Jesus, bro, last resort,” Cejudo said on his Pound 4 Pound podcast with Kamaru Usman.

“I’d rather get into stripping than do BKFC, bro. On my life,” he added. “If all these female UFC fighters can do it, why can’t I do it?”

Henry Cejudo revealed his retirement plan to President Donald Trump

Talk of the former two-division UFC champion hanging up the gloves again this year arose a few months before the fight with Talbott was announced by Dana White.

Cejudo told United States President Donald Trump his plan to fight just once more when the pair interacted at the NCAA wrestling finals this past July.

“I’ve got one more and I’m calling it,” Cejudo said.

Having already reversed one retirement decision, it remains to be seen if ‘Triple C’ will commit to an exit from the sport for good the second time around.
