Urijah Faber called our current UFC \u2018champ champ\u2019 Henry Cejudo following his sensational victory at last night\u2019s event in Sacramento.<\/p>\n
The former WEC champion, Faber, needed only 40-seconds to put away surging up and comer Ricky Simon in yesterday\u2019s co-main event.<\/p>\n
Urijah Faber connected with a straight right that floored Ricky Simon. From there, \u2018The California Kid<\/a>\u2019 unleashed some nasty ground and pound which forced the referee to step in and stop the fight.<\/p>\n The victory marked Faber\u2019s first since December of 2016, where he had defeated fellow veteran Brad Pickett via unanimous decision. Following his win over \u2018One Punch\u2019, Urijah announced that he would be hanging up his gloves. He decided to end his retirement earlier this Spring.<\/p>\n Following his incredible performance in front of a hometown crowd, Urijah Faber called out Henry Cejudo.<\/p>\n The former Olympic Gold medalist and current UFC flyweight and bantamweight title holder, Cejudo, responded to Urijah Faber with the following.<\/p>\n \u201cCareful what you wish for my corn-rolled princess.
