Only four Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighters have held titles in two different divisions and Henry “Triple C” Cejudo is one among them.
Hailing from the United States, Cejudo clinched the flyweight title, defeating Demetrious Johnson via split decision, in 2018 at UFC 227 and then went on to defend it in 2019 against TJ Dillashaw. The 36-year-old then relinquished his flyweight title and decided to fight for the bantamweight belt.

At UFC 238 in 2019, Cejudo challenged Marlon Moraes for the vacant bantamweight title and went on to win it via strikes in the very first round. He then defended his title the following year, beating Dominic Cruz, at UFC 249 but retired shortly after, vacating the title.
After a three-and-a-half-year hiatus, Triple C was back in action against current bantamweight holder Aljamain Sterling in the title bout at UFC 288 in New Jersey. Sterling beat Cejudo to defend his title for the third time.
Cejudo has 16 wins and three losses under his belt and is currently unranked in his division.
