Joseph Benavidez still ticked at Henry Cejudo

HOUSTON -- Joseph Benavidez has a consequential fight with Ali Bagautinov coming up Saturday night at UFC 192.

But the Team Alpha Male fighter is still a little peeved he's not getting a piece of Henry Cejudo.

A bout between the top flyweight contenders was openly discussed and all but officially announced for either UFC 191 or UFC 192, But according to Benavidez, Cejudo dropped out at the last minute.

"I'm not upset or disappointed that Cejudo said he wanted to fight me," Benavidez said at Thursday's media day at Toyota Center.
