I think something that has separated me from the rest of the competition - maybe it's just my way of thinking - I don't necessarily go into fights just wanting to win but to actually dominate. So when I don't feel like I dominate, sometimes I feel like a loser, I guess, you know, maybe in that perspective.

Henry Cejudo

Growing up without a dad and not having a father figure - I noticed a hole in my life. For the longest time, I would run away from my problems instead of confronting them. I felt empty at one point. Not depressed, but empty.

Henry Cejudo

Time Life Would

I speak three languages. I'm pretty handsome myself.

Henry Cejudo

Age Three T

In wrestling, you're talking about a fraternity of champions, and I got a chance to be a part of that Olympic championship club. And anyone that ever won the Olympics in wrestling, there's something different about them.

Henry Cejudo

Chance Art You

You can accomplish anything that you dedicate yourself to. Think how many people struggle across the world, across the country. I know anything is possible if you set your mind, your body, your soul, and your faith to it.

Henry Cejudo

Faith Yourself Yours

In the year 2013, I fought six times. I fought four times in two-and-a-half months.

Henry Cejudo

Time Year Two

The thing that people don't know about me - I actually boxed amateur for a few years.

Henry Cejudo

Years Year Thing

I'm the cash cow now, man. It's the Cejudo way.

Henry Cejudo

Way T Now

Everything that I did to win a gold medal, I'm practically transferring it over to mixed martial arts.

Henry Cejudo

Art Win Very

Sometimes when you think something is shiny and gold, it tends to be rusted and bronze, but that's just the way it is, man.

Henry Cejudo

Time You Way

I don't just want to fight Demetrious: I want to beat him, and he's been on my mind since he beat me.

Henry Cejudo

Want Us Trio

We're in the entertainment business.

Henry Cejudo

Men Business Us

I would love to fight in Mexico City.

Henry Cejudo

Love Would T

I'm ready for anybody. If it's John Dodson, if it's Demetrious Johnson, if it's Joseph Benavidez, I'm ready for whichever one, whoever wants a piece of me.

Henry Cejudo

Whoever Who Which

I'm an Arizona boy.

Henry Cejudo

Boy Arizona

It's up to the UFC, but I'll fight whomever, whenever. Minus maybe Vegas.

Henry Cejudo

Home Whom Who

I'm a big fan of Jon Jones.

Henry Cejudo

Jon Fan Big Fan

The medal just was an object, just a medal, and that's it. What really meant something was the blood, the sweat, the tears that went into getting that medal. I'll always have the memories of that with me.

Henry Cejudo

Wit Ways Way

If anything, I get better throughout the rounds.

Henry Cejudo

UN Through Thing

I'm a big Conor McGregor fan. I really am, man. I enjoy him; I like watching him.

Henry Cejudo

Watching Watch T

God bless America. I am American. I'm very patriotic. I love this country.

Henry Cejudo

Love God Very

I want to fight Tim Elliott. I want to fight him.

Henry Cejudo

It's part of the sport, getting hit.

Henry Cejudo

I would meet Tim Elliott at 135. At heavyweight if he wanted.

Henry Cejudo

It was very important to me to join an organization that has an established track record of helping young fighters grow into world class athletes and champions. Gladiator Challenge has been a home to such fighters as Quinton Jackson, Rashad Evans, Urijah Faber, Tyson Griffin, Chael Sonnen, Michael McDonald, and many others.

Henry Cejudo

To beat Henry Cejudo, you might have to bring an AK-47 and a couple dudes.

Henry Cejudo

The only thing I know how to do is survive.

Henry Cejudo

In Mexico, I want to be known as the Aztec Warrior.

Henry Cejudo

I think I have all tools in the world to beat anybody at 125 pounds. I really do.

Henry Cejudo

I've accomplished everything I've ever wanted to in my career.

Henry Cejudo

Henry Cejudo is going to become the greatest combat athlete of all time, being an Olympic champ and a two-division champ in the UFC.

Henry Cejudo

Look at Colby Covington. The guy can fight, and the guy can talk. To a lot of people, he just grinds people out, and many people consider him boring, but because he opens his mouth, people want to watch him fight. A lot of people want to see him win; a lot of people want to see him lose.

Henry Cejudo

I can easily fill out at 135 pounds and feel good.

Henry Cejudo

I don't like to open my mouth a lot because, I'll be honest with you, man, I come from the streets.

Henry Cejudo

I'd like to see him fight at 135 for the championship. I want to see how good Demetrious Johnson is or how far he could take it.

Henry Cejudo

I actually won the Copper Gloves in Arizona.

Henry Cejudo

I come from the sport of wrestling, where there's nothing but respect on the mat.

Henry Cejudo

I think something that has separated me from the rest of the competition - maybe it's just my way of thinking - I don't necessarily go into fights just wanting to win but to actually dominate. So when I don't feel like I dominate, sometimes I feel like a loser, I guess, you know, maybe in that perspective.

Henry Cejudo

M.M.A. is growing, and it's a basic wrestling sport. A lot of fighters are ex-wrestlers. A lot of guys take the easy way out, make quick money.

Henry Cejudo

I know success; I've done it, but success is not what everyone thinks it is. It's only a tool and a platform for a greater message. That's where my nickname 'The Messenger' comes from. The UFC and a world title are a platform for something greater. For a bigger purpose.

Henry Cejudo

I think T. J. Dillashaw and Demetrious Johnson - I'm a bad matchup for both of them.

Henry Cejudo

Will I become a UFC champion some day? I know I will.

Henry Cejudo

Why call out the champion in my first title defense? Because that's who Henry Cejudo is.

Henry Cejudo

I have the best style to defeat the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world - Demetrious Johnson.

Henry Cejudo

I got a huge target on my back. But you know what, I'm going to embrace that, and everybody is on notice - flyweights and bantamweights.

Henry Cejudo

I want to fight for a credible organization and face high caliber opponents.

Henry Cejudo

Coming from the background that I come from, being a gold medalist, you see Ronda Rousey and Daniel Cormier doing so well. Yoel Romero. All these Olympians. It's kinda hard to bet against them.

Henry Cejudo

I started competing on boxing, so I have my hands. I'm an O.K. wrestler, so why not?

Henry Cejudo

At some point, if the UFC allows me, I'd like to go to 125 because I know I can win that belt, man. I'm too strong, and I'm too fast.

Henry Cejudo

Henry Cejudo is a motivator.

Henry Cejudo

I've done things, from the Olympics to defeating two of the greatest fighters of all time.
