Seattle, WASports

Henry Cejudo's comeback in the UFC has turned grim, as he experienced his third straight loss at UFC Seattle against Song Yadong, who won via technical decision. The fight concluded controversially after Cejudo was struck by a double eye-poke, leaving him unable to see clearly and prompting him to seek a doctor's evaluation. Despite the setback, Cejudo showcased his resilience throughout the match, landing significant strikes and defending against Yadong's attacks. However, with the fight ending on the scorecards, many fans and analysts believe a point should have been deducted from Yadong for the foul, which could have changed the outcome. Yadong, acknowledging the accidental nature of the foul, expressed remorse and suggested a rematch to settle the score.

Cejudo's record now stands at 0-3 since his unexpected retirement as the bantamweight champion in 2020, raising concerns about his competitive future. Meanwhile, Yadong aims to build on this victory to regain his standing in the bantamweight division. The event also featured Anthony "Fluffy" Hernandez winning a competitive bout, adding more excitement to the night.
