Henry
Cejudo’s first
Ultimate Fighting Championship belt was reportedly stolen
during a burglary.
Cejudo’s producer, Dylan Rush, recently revealed that the former
two-division champion’s first UFC belt was stolen from his studio
in the early morning hours on Tuesday. Rush was trying to sleep on
the couch when he saw a person who he mistook to be Cejudo. Rush
then suddenly heard a glass shelf break after which the unknown
perpetrator took to his heels.
“Someone broke into Henry’s studio last night at 4:45 AM and stole
his first UFC belt while I was sleeping on the couch,” Rush wrote
on social media. “I woke up and watched the guy stand there for two
minutes thinking it was Henry because it was dark. Then I heard a
crash (the shelf fell) and the dude ran out.”
Cejudo was in the news over the weekend for
confronting speeding teenagers who crashed their car into his
neighbor’s yard. Cejudo intervened when they tried to flee the
scene after assaulting his elderly neighbor.
Cejudo won his first UFC title by defeating Demetrious
Johnson at UFC 227 in 2018 and defended it against T.J.
Dillashaw. He then won the bantamweight title against Marlon
Moraes in 2019 and defended it against Dominick
Cruz before abruptly retiring at the peak of his career.
“Triple C” returned to competition in 2023 after a three hiatus and
has since suffered three straight losses against top contenders.
