Henry Cejudo Discusses Training With the Fighters From The Ultimate Fighter 24 at His Gym
MMAjunkie Radio recently spoke to UFC flyweight fighter Henry Cejudo, who discussed the fighters on The Ultimate Fighter 24 and his training with them. Below are some highlights.
Cejudo on his TUF 24 team members now training at this gym: “We have Alexandre Pantoja out with us. Zulu Boy (Nkazimulo Zulu) who later becomes King Zulu – I don’t know if they’re going to show that, but we have him. Matt Schnell, Adam (Antolin) and then we have Yoni (Sherbatov) coming out in November. We pretty much have four out of the eight guys in a reunion. People can say what they want to say, but we’re all changing together.”
Cejudo on why it can be an emotional experience: “It’s unfortunate because you really do get attached to these guys for these six weeks. You see these guys fight and it’s unfortunate because they become friends. Even on the opposing side with Team Benavidez, they become friends (with those guys). In this situation, it kind of sucks because these are your two guys you’ve been teaching pretty much the same techniques and tactics and now you have to go off and let them be on their own. When you watch the show, I’m not in either of their corners, I’m just sitting and spectating.”
