The UFC lightweight champion is a fan of the flyweight division. Shortly after Henry Cejudo’s 32-second victory over TJ Dillashaw at UFC Brooklyn, Khabib Nurmagomedov took to Twitter to sing his praises to the 125 pounds title holder after his first successful defense.
In a couple of tweets, Nurmagomedov not only congratulated Cejudo’s win, but also asked UFC president, Dana White, not to end the flyweight division.
Olympic athletes is a different level people. Congratulations @HenryCejudo
