Henry Carlos Cejudo (born February 9, 1987) is an American professionalmixed martial artist and formerfreestyle wrestler. He currently competes in theBantamweight division of theUltimate Fighting Championship (UFC), where he is a formerUFC Flyweight Champion andBantamweight Champion. Cejudo is the fourth UFC fighter to hold titles in two different weight classes simultaneously, and the second to defend titles in two different weight divisions. He is considered to be among the greatest combat athletes of all time due to his accomplishments inMMA andfreestyle wrestling.[8][9][10][11][12]
During his wrestling career, Cejudo competed at 55 kilograms and became the youngest AmericanOlympic gold medalist inwrestling history at the time, winning the2008 Summer Olympics at age 21. As a senior level freestyle wrestler, he was also a2007 Pan American Games gold medalist, as well as a multiple-timePan American Championships gold medalist and US national champion.[13][14]
As of September 16, 2025, he is #10 in theUFC bantamweight rankings.[15]
Born to Mexican immigrants inLos Angeles,California, Cejudo is the second youngest of the family's seven siblings.[16][17][18] As a result of his violent father's drug and alcohol abuse, Cejudo's family constantly moved around the Los Angeles area.[16]
When Cejudo was four, his mother fled toNew Mexico with her children before his father, who was jailed after threatening to kill his whole family and subsequently getting into an altercation in the street, was released.[16] His father wasdeported when Cejudo was six years old and died when Cejudo was about 20 years old.[19][16] After a couple of years in New Mexico, the family relocated toPhoenix, Arizona. In Phoenix, the family lived inMaryvale in poverty despite their mother working multiple jobs to make the ends meet.[20][16]
Cejudo never slept alone in his own bed until he was provided one byUSA Wrestling while participating in a residency program at theUS Olympic Training Center in Colorado.[21] He also started competing as an amateur boxer, and won the annual state Copper Gloves boxing tournament in 2010 in Phoenix, Arizona.[22][23][24]
Cejudo enrolled atGrand Canyon University in 2010[25] and graduated in 2015 with a degree inTheology.[26]
Inspired by his older brotherAngel Cejudo, who was an undefeated four-timeAIAwrestling state champion with a record of 150 wins and zero defeats who represented the United States internationally,[27][28] Henry also became a four-timer. Hisfreshman andsophomore year titles were won inArizona, before he moved toColorado Springs, Colorado, to become a resident athlete at theUnited States Olympic Training Center. He won the Colorado state championships (CHSAA) as ajunior andsenior, and was namedASICS "National High School Wrestler of the Year" in 2006. In the same year, he was selected inUSA Wrestling Magazine's "Dream Team of High School All-Americans."[29]
In 2006, Cejudo won the Fargo National title infreestyle.[30] Soon after his victory, he began full-time training at theUnited States Olympic Training Center inColorado Springs, Colorado.[31] There, he prepared for theU20 World Championships; after a fifth-place finish in2005, Cejudo was able to claim the silver medal for theUnited States team.[32] He opted to pursue an international career in freestyle rather than competing incollegiate wrestling.[13]
Cejudo made his senior level debut on October 23, 2005, at the Sunkist Open, at the age of 18. He earned notable victories over NCAA champion Jason Powell and three-time All-American Tanner Gardner before finishing fifth.[33] On April 15, 2006, he won the US National Championship at 55 kilograms, qualifying for the US World Team Trials[34] and becoming the first high schooler to do so since the organization (USAW) was established as the sport's governing body in 1983.[35] At the World Team Trials, he defeated an eventual accomplished wrestler inFranklin Gómez in the opening match of the Challenge Tournament before making it to thebest-of-three finals. There, he was downed twice by the2000 Olympic silver medalist and1998 World ChampionSammie Henson, losing the spot.[36] He quickly bounced back a week later with a Pan American title.[37] In his last competition of the year, Cejudo competed at the Sunkist Open, where he lost in the second round.[38]
On March 22, 2007, Cejudo captured a bronze medal at the World Cup.[29] In April 7, he claimed his second US National title while compiling wins overcollegiate andinternational standoutNick Simmons and two-time All-American Vic Moreno.[39] On May 18, he earned his second Pan American title.[40] Cejudo then made the US World Team after two straight wins over Matt Azevedo.[41] Before the2007 World Championships, he warmed up with aPan American Games title.[42] At the World Championships, he was taken out in the opening round byUzbekistan's Erkin Tadzhimetov and placed 31st.[43]
Cejudo started off the most successful year of his freestyle career in March 2, with a Pan American title.[44] He failed to secure his third consecutive US National title after he waspinned by Matt Azevedo, not before defeating recent All-AmericanObe Blanc.[45] At the US Olympic Team Trials, he started off by comfortably downing two opponents to make it to the best-of-three. There, he had a hard-fought series with04' Olympic Silver medalist and defending Olympic team memberStephen Abas, whom he went 2–1 with, earning theUS Olympic Team spot.[46]
Cejudo was coached for the Olympics byKevin Jackson, the first Olympic gold medalist to win a UFC championship.[a][5]
At the2008 Summer Olympics, Cejudo opened up with a win overRadoslav Velikov, the06' World Champion; after losing the first period 0–1, he bounced back with 3–2 and 4–3 periods. In the next round, he facedBesarion Gochashvili fromGeorgia; the same results as his opening bout popped up, after losing the first period 1–3, he came back with scores of 3–2 and 3–0 to defeat Gochashvili. He then wrestledAzerbaijan'sNamig Sevdimov, whom he took out after once again losing the first period (3–5) and winning the next two (3–2, 4–3). In the finale, he metTomohiro Matsunaga, aJapanese athlete who was coming fresh off an Asian title; he won the first period after scoring the biggest move and won the second period after a comfortable 3–0 score.[48][49] This made Cejudo the youngestAmerican to win Olympic Gold in wrestling history at age 21[50] (record was later broken byKyle Snyder, 20, in2016).[51] He then took a break from his freestyle wrestling career.[52]
After announcing that he would try to make a second Olympic run in 2010,[53] Cejudo made his comeback at the 2011 Beat the Streets charity event,[54] where he beat Rasul Mashezov 2–0 and 4–3.[55]
In his first tournament since his lay-off, Cejudo claimed a Sunkist Open title after compiling four victories, on October 28, 2011.[56] On November 26, 2011, he earned a silver medal from theHenri Deglane Challenge, after being defeated in the finals byGhenadie Tulbea.[57]
At the 2012 US Olympic Team Trials, Cejudo downedObe Blanc before being defeated by the top-seedNick Simmons, failing to make his second US Olympic Team. After the Simmons match, Cejudo put his shoes in the middle of the mat, signaling his retirement from the sport.[58][59]
While already an undefeatedMMA prospect, Cejudo made a brief return to the sport at the "Agon V:Iowa against the World" event by wrestlingTony Ramos (who would go on to win the US Open weeks later) on April 4, 2015, weeks after his win overChris Cariaso atUFC 185. Despite riding an 8–2 lead, he was defeated by that year'sWorld Team Member after he scored eight more points of his own, ending the match 8–10.[60]
In June 2018, Cejudo was prestigiously inducted into theNational Wrestling Hall of Fame as a Distinguished Member.[13]
Soon after his exhibition match with Ramos, Cejudo flirted with the possibility of making a2016 Olympic Run, however, his intentions never materialized.[61][62]
On January 30, 2013, Cejudo announced on his Twitter page that he planned to begin training for a career in MMA.[63][64] Despite wrestling at 121 pounds during his wrestling career, Cejudo fought at 135 pounds in his MMA debut.[65] He defeated Michael Poe by TKO due to punches in his MMA debut on March 2, 2013, for the Arizona-based World Fighting Federation.[66]
Over the next year, Cejudo amassed a record of 6–0 with three wins by TKO, one by submission, and two by decision. Prior to signing with the UFC, Cejudo was listed as the #1 ranked bantamweight prospect in the MMA Prospects Report 2013.[67]
On July 25, 2014, Cejudo signed with theUFC.[68] He is the third Olympic gold medalist wrestler in company history, afterMark Schultz andKevin Jackson.[69] Cejudo was expected to faceScott Jorgensen on August 30, 2014, atUFC 177.[70] However, due to medical issues on the day of the weigh-ins, Cejudo was forced out of the bout and the fight was subsequently canceled.[71] In light of this, and his history of missing weight, presidentDana White said Cejudo had to move up to bantamweight or leave the UFC.[72]

On September 16, 2015, Cejudo announced that he would refuse to fight in Nevada after the Nevada State Athletic Commission suspended and finedNick Diaz following a failed drug test atUFC 182. Cejudo cited the NSAC's process in determining Diaz's guilt as the reason for the boycott.[82] Despite the lack of change in NSAC procedure, Cejudo ended his Nevada boycott to face UFC Flyweight championDemetrious Johnson on April 23, 2016, atUFC 197 for the Flyweight title.[83] He lost the fight via TKO in the first round, being dropped with a variety of strikes.[84]
