Song Yadong offers Henry Cejudo immediate rematch after eye poke fiasco at UFC Seattle

Off the back of his controversial majority decision win at UFC Seattle, Chinese star, Song Yadong has offered former two-weight champion, Henry Cejudo an immediate rematch — after an inadvertent eye poke in the third round forced a doctor’s stoppage.

Yadong, entering tonight’s main event setting off the back of a one-sided unanimous decision loss against former undisputed bantamweight champion, Yan — would land himself a technical decision (29-28, 29-28, 30-27) after just three rounds — after Cejudo was unable to continue after finding himself on the receiving end of a rather nasty eye poke in the final minute of the third round.
