Cejudo has had a remarkable combat sports journey spanning wrestling and mixed martial arts. His career has been defined by historic achievements and an unwavering commitment to excellence that few fighters can match.<\/p><p>From his early days as an Olympic wrestler to becoming only the fourth UFC fighter to hold championships in two divisions simultaneously, Cejudo has consistently defied expectations. &lsquo;Triple C&rsquo; has built a legacy that will be remembered long after his fighting days are over. Now, it appears those days are numbered as the combat sports world prepares to bid farewell to one of its most accomplished athletes.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/ufc-316-card-dana-white-reveals-huge-main-and-co-main-events\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC 316 Card- Dana White Reveals Huge Main And Co-Main Events!!!<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">One More Fight Before Walking Away<\/h2><p>In a recent statement that has stirred the MMA community, Cejudo declared his next fight will be his final appearance in the octagon.

This practical approach to his career finale suggests he has balanced his competitive drive with long-term personal considerations.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Did Cejudo Last Retire?<\/h2><p>This isn&rsquo;t the first time Henry Cejudo has announced his retirement. After defeating Dominick Cruz at UFC 249 in May 2020, Cejudo shocked fans by laying down his gloves in the octagon. This is the traditional symbol of a fighter&rsquo;s retirement. That announcement came at the peak of his career, having just successfully defended his bantamweight title.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"UFC 249: Henry Cejudo retires after defending bantamweight title\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/S-RBnM4JAXI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>His first retirement lasted nearly three years. He then returned to challenge Aljamain Sterling for the bantamweight championship at UFC 288 in May 2023. That comeback fight resulted in a narrow split decision loss, with most judges scoring the bout for Sterling. Since then, Cejudo has remained active but faced setbacks with consecutive losses to Merab Dvalishvili and most recently Song Yadong in February 2025.<\/p><p>For a fighter with Olympic gold, two UFC championships, and victories over legends like Demetrious Johnson and Dominick Cruz, &lsquo;Triple C&rsquo; has nothing left to prove. His place in combat sports history is secure. If this truly is the end, fans will remember not just the championships and accolades, but also the entertaining personality and remarkable skill set of one of MMA&rsquo;s most unique competitors!<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: Steven Bisig &ndash; Imagn Images)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former champion Henry Cejudo plans on ending his career on his own terms !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":37119,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1783],"tags":[2016],"class_list":["post-37080","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mma","tag-henry-cejudo"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Henry Cejudo Ready To Put The Gloves Down For The Final Time!
