On May 6, 2023, at UFC 288 against bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling, Henry Cejudo will make his comeback to the cage.When compared to Sterling’s impressive performances in his most recent fights, how will the former bantamweight champion’s extended absence from the ring effect his bid to win back the title he never dropped in the octagon?
This issue was brought up by Brazilian bantamweight Pedro Munhoz in an exclusive conversation with James Lynch of Sportskeeda MMA.
Munhoz discussed how Aljamain Sterling’s physical edge in size would play a role in the UFC 288 main event. He supported the Jamaican-born fighter in his third successful championship defence against Henry Cejudo.
In his words:
“Yes, without a doubt no. Cejudo is a skilled combatant. The outcome has demonstrated both of those things, along with everything else he has been doing in this activity. Aljamain Sterling, however, has an edge in this particular game, in my opinion. Considering his size and the number of opponents he has recently faced, he didn’t sustain much harm. I believe it will significantly impact the bout for it to be prolonged and the pace, cardio-wise and all that. Therefore, I recognise a piece of Aljamain Sterling.
