UFC Fighter Henry Cejudo Details Narrow Escape from NorCal Fires

Mixed martial arts fighter Henry Cejudo revealed he had to escape a burning hotel when he was caught in the middle of the wildfires that have spread across northern California.

In an interview Monday with Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour, Cejudo said he had fallen back asleep after hearing the fire alarm go off in his hotel. He awoke to find smoke filling his room and looked out his window to see half of the hotel was on fire.

"I was scared," Cejudo said (via MMA Fighting's Marc Raimondi).
