UFC Monterrey video recap: Cejudo defeats Formiga by decision

Check out Bloody Elbow's recap of the UFC Fight Night 78 main card bout between Jussier Formiga and Henry Cejudo on Saturday night in Mexico.

Henry Cejudo picked up the biggest win of his career on the main card of UFC Fight Night 78 on Saturday night in Monterrey, Mexico when he took home a split decision win over top contender Jussier Formiga.

The undefeated mixed martial artist was simply one step ahead of the Brazilian throughout the fight. He landed better shots in their striking exchanges and was able to take Formiga down a couple of times, but it was far from a dominant outing for Cejudo.
