Henry Cejudo will go down in history as one of the few UFC competitors to win two titles. His impressive history, which includes an Olympic gold medal and a UFC world title, attests to his superior fighting skills. The American warrior came from modest means and struggled to make ends meet.
‘Triple C’ embodies the American Dream, with its parents being Mexican immigrants. He suffered a strict upbringing in poverty while his mother worked multiple jobs to support the family. The Los Angeles native took control of his life by taking up wrestling and eventually became famous and wealthy due to his on-the-mat exploits.
After becoming the youngest American to win a gold medal in wrestling, he switched to mixed martial arts and quickly established himself as a formidable competitor. He decided to call it quits from mixed martial arts in 2020 to go out on top. Since then, ‘The Messenger’ has been making great efforts to be a devoted family man.
