Former UFC two-weight world champion Henry Cejudo continues to troll Alexander Volkanovski and campaign for a shot at the Featherweight Championship.<\/p>\n

While Cejudo may have retired in the wake of his win over Dominick Cruz earlier this summer, it’s clear to see that “Triple C” is still very much interested in the prospect of becoming the first fighter in UFC history to win a title in three different weight classes.<\/p>\n

Regardless of whether or not that dream will ever become a reality, he’s certainly doing everything he can to try and tempt Volkanovski into taking the fight against him.<\/p>\n

“Alex keeps wanting to play kids games like duck duck cejudo. @danawhite @alexvolkanovski”<\/p>\n

As he’s already stated in the past<\/a>, though, Volkanovski isn’t exactly too impressed by the tactics that Cejudo has been using to try and make the fight happen.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe definitely lives up to his name when it\u2019s the cringe, but I always thought the cringe was just things he said, but now it\u2019s getting cringey how much he\u2019s begging for a title fight,\u201d Volkanovski told Submission Radio of Cejudo. \u201cHe just doesn\u2019t stop. It\u2019s cringey how you retire, and you call out everyone, stirring shit everywhere. It just seems like he\u2019s even stirring the pot in the divisions that he retired in. He\u2019s still getting lippy to some of the guys back down there, but obviously he\u2019s calling me out. And again, if it was gonna happen it was earlier in the year. But again, I\u2019ve got a division to hold and I\u2019ve got my eye on the division. I want these number one contenders. And if for some reason the UFC pushed that [Cejudo fight] on me, like I said, I\u2019ve got to get paid for it, because it\u2019s just a waste of time for me, I believe. A waste of time for the division.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s done great things in flyweight and bantamweight, but I mean, featherweight is whole different beast,\u201d Volkanovski added, giving Cejudo some props. \u201cThat\u2019s why it\u2019s never been done. I get why he wants to chase it. It makes sense. Again, it\u2019s a win-win for him. I go out there and mop the floor with him, \u2018ah yeah, he\u2019s a lot bigger, blah, blah, blah\u2019. That\u2019s why it just doesn\u2019t make sense for me, cause everyone\u2019s just going to sort of expect me to go out there and mop the floor. And that\u2019s pretty much exactly what\u2019s going to happen. No disrespect to Henry Cejudo, but it\u2019s a whole different breed in this division. So, it would just be a waste of time.\u201d<\/p>\n
