Israel Adesanya notes dislike for ‘Little f*cking b*tch’ Henry Cejudo ahead of title fight return at UFC 288

Undisputed UFC middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya is picking current bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling to retain his title tonight in the main event of UFC 288, noting a stern dislike for former duel-weight champion and incoming challenger, Henry Cejudo.

Adesanya, a two-time and current undisputed middleweight champion, managed to regain the throne himself back in April at UFC 287, stopping arch-rival, Alex Pereira with a second round knockout to win undisputed spoils in Miami, Florida.

As for Cejudo, the Los Angeles-born challenger makes his first Octagon walk in over three years tonight at the Prudential Center, having called time on his illustrious career off the back of a 2020 knockout win against former champion, Dominick Cruz.
