Henry Sehudo may end his professional career

If Henry Cejudo suffers a loss in his upcoming fight against Merab Dvalishvili, the former UFC double champion could permanently end his professional fighting career.

“It’s a number one contender’s title fight,” MMAJunkie quoted “Triple Champion” as saying. “I lost to Aljamain, and if I lose again, I’m probably done fighting again because it’s a tough sport. Doing training camps, having a family and two young kids, it’s very difficult. So it’s all or nothing.”

Sehudo, who resumed his career last year after a three-year hiatus, admits that the financial factor played no small part in his decision.

“I liked the fight with Struehling and I wanted to test myself, but there was also the financial aspect. I’ve been out of work for three years and fighting is the easiest way to make a living”

As a reminder, a potential challenger fight between Merab Dvalishvili and Henry Cejudo will be part of UFC 298, which takes place on Feb. 17 in Anaheim.
