Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) recently held a special pre-fight press conference for the upcoming UFC on ESPN+ 1: “Cejudo vs Dillashaw” event, going down this Saturday night (Jan. 19, 2019) inside Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Watch the full video replay here.
Taking center stage was Henry Cejudo, who will defend his Flyweight title against current Bantamweight champion, TJ Dillashaw, in what could very well be the final title fight in the 125-pound division. For “Viper,” it’s his chance to become the fourth UFC “champ-champ,” while Henry can earn his first-ever title defense and keep his division alive.
Watch them staredown in the embedded video above.
Also getting some airtime at the presser were Donald Cerrone and Alexander Hernandez, who will collide in a pivotal Lightweight showdown in main card action which will see one of the most experienced fighters in all of MMA take on an up-and-comer with only two fights so far inside the eight-sided cage.
