Henry Cejudo Claims He’s the Man to Beat Demetrious Johnson After UFC 215
Speaking at the post-fight press conference for UFC 215, Henry Cejudo discussed his impressive win over Wilson Reis during the card. Below are some highlights from the press conference (via MMAjunkie).
Cejudo on beating Demetrious Johnson: “I’m the one. I know I’m the one. I have the style, I have the wrestling. I know I’m the one to beat Demetrious Johnson. No disrespect to these fighters, no disrespect to any of them. Anybody has that fighter’s chance, but I believe I have the style to eventually beat him, and I truly do believe that.”
Cejudo on fighting Johnson again: “Emotionally, I do want to fight him right away. Technically, am I going to be ready for this guy? I don’t want to just fight Demetrious; I want to beat him. He’s been on my mind since he beat me. I’m a competitor, man. To get stopped in front of 20,000 people, that (expletive) hurts. I think about it a lot. There’s a reason why he’s the pound-for-pound best fighter in the world. That’s who I have to beat – not just fight, beat.”
