This Saturday night in Chicago, Cejudo will attempt to earn ‘champ champ’ status when he moves up in weight to take on Marlon Moraes for the promotions vacant bantamweight title.

The former Olympic gold medalist, Henry Cejudo, recently took to Instagram where he showed off his incredible physique.

“Physically Possessed! And New! UFC 238!”

Henry Cejudo was last seen in action at January’s ESPN event in Brooklyn, where he successfully defended his flyweight title for the first time by scoring a first round knockout victory over TJ Dillashaw.

Prior to denying TJ Dillashaw of becoming a two division champion, Henry Cejudo had defeated pound for pound great Demetrious Johnson at UFC 227.

As for Cejudo’s UFC 238 opponent, Marlon Moraes will enter next weekend’s event headliner on a four fight win streak. During that stretch, the Brazilian has scored stoppage victories over Raphael Assuncao, Aljamain Sterling and Jimmie Rivera.

UFC 238 is co-headlined by a women’s flyweight fight featuring current champion Valentina Shevchenko taking on Jessica Eye.

If that wasn’t enough to get you interested, UFC 238 also features a key lightweight fight between former interim champ Tony Ferguson and former title challenger Donald Cerrone.

Despite the ‘super fight’ qualities of Henry Cejudo vs. Marlon Moraes, the ‘Cowboy’ vs. ‘El Cucuy’ fight is being dubbed ‘The People’s Main Event’.
