Henry Cejudo sent a message to the rest of the MMA world on Saturday night by becoming the fourth fighter in UFC history to hold world titles in two divisions simultaneously.
Cejudo (15-2) took his time but eventually outclassed Brazilian powerhouse Marlon Moraes and stopped him in the third frame of their UFC 238 headlining bout in Chicago. “The Messenger” absorbed a hellish low kick attack from Moraes in the opening stanza and eventually slowed his foe down with punches and knees. Cejudo dispatched “Magic” with a punishing assault of elbows and fists from top half guard, forcing referee Marc Goddard to intervene at the 4:51 mark of round three.
