Khabib Nurmagomedov Advocates for Cejudo Title Fight

Brandon Moreno is viewed by coach Sayif Saud as the most complete flyweight and a strong candidate to dethrone current champion Alexandre Pantoja, although he has lost to Pantoja three times. Pantoja has dominated the flyweight division, recently defending his title against Kai Asakura and holding victories over many top contenders. Khabib Nurmagomedov suggested that former dual-champion Henry Cejudo, who is aiming for a comeback, should face Pantoja as there are limited options left in the division. Cejudo, while acknowledging his age, believes a match against Pantoja would elevate the champion's status. As the UFC continues to see exciting developments, 2024 ended with notable performances, including Joaquin Buckley defeating Colby Covington and Dricus du Plessis claiming the middleweight title. Overall, the flyweight division remains dynamic, with potential matchups that could reshape the title landscape.
