A first UFC event in Seattle, Washington, since UFC on Fox: Johnson vs. Moraga in July 2013, UFC Fight Night 252 has the main event to make the nearly 12-year wait worth it.
Henry Cejudo just couldn't keep away from the Octagon, and reversed his retirement back in 2023. A two-division former champions and 2008 Olympic gold medallist in wrestling, the now 38-year-old has lost both fights since his return – to Aljamain Sterling for the UFC Bantamweight title and current title holder Merab Dvalishvili almost exactly a year ago – and the pressure is on to avoid an unwanted hat-trick
Song Yadong has been in impressive form recently – winning five of his last sven fights – and has a solid ranking inside the top 10 of the stacked Bantamweight division. But last time out he lost to Peter Yan, the second defeat to someone ranked above him in that seven-bout run. The younger man at 27, he starts as favorite, but will Cejudo's grade give him an upset win?
There are plenty of other contests to look forward to at Climate Pledge Arena , Seattle, including Brendan Allen vs Anthony Hernandez and Rob Font vs Jean Matsumoto.
Song was just a 10-year-old boy back in China when Cejudo won Olympic gold. “He’s a legend, was Olympic champ when I was young, two-division UFC champion… I like the fight,” Song said earlier this week. “I believe I will make him retire after this one… It’s gonna be one-sided beat-up.”
Cejudo has teased a return to Flyweight earlier this week, albeit adding: “With a victory here I don’t think there’s anybody at flyweight that could really sell the division.”
Cejudo weighed in at 13lbs for his do-or-die fight that could end in his (second) retirement, while Song was the accepted one pound over the bantamweight the limit for a non-title bout to come in at 136. The atmosphere is building in Seattle, with the undercard due to start in a couple of hours’ time, so make sure you’re all set with the stream for when it starts.
