Summary:

  • Moreno called Cejudo out right after Cejudo's fight with Aljo
  • Cejudo prefers that Moreno moves up to bantamweight rather than him dropping down to flyweight. But he is willing to go down if the UFC pays him.
  • There is bad blood between Cejudo and Moreno stemming from a sense of betrayal, as Cejudo did not select Moreno for his team on "The Ultimate Fighter" and Moreno ended up training with Cejudo's rival -Joseph Benavidez.
  • Cejudo has trained and mentored Moreno's rival Deiveson Figueiredo in the past.
  • Cejudo sees their potential matchup as a great storyline, with Moreno being the "baby face" and himself as the "heel."
  • Cejudo is ready for the fight if the UFC offers a lucrative deal, saying, "Show me the money, let's make it happen, baby."
  • Francis Ngannou was surprised but glad when Deontay Wilder made an appearance at a PFL event.
  • Ngannou confirmed that he had discussions with Wilder earlier this year about a potential two-fight deal.
  • They decided to postpone their fight plans so that Wilder could focus on his upcoming fight with Anthony Joshua in December.
  • Ngannou expressed interest in fighting Wilder in 2024 when he starts his PFL run.
  • Wilder showed openness to trying MMA, unlike Tyson Fury, who dismissed the idea of a hybrid - boxing/MMA fight with Ngannou.
  • Fury clarified that he is only interested in boxing and is scheduled to fight Joshua at the end of the year.
  • Ngannou doubts that Dana White can convince Fury to consider an MMA fight.
  • Ngannou is focused on MMA and expects to debut in the PFL early next year, while the possibility of a boxing match is uncertain.
