A seemingly rejuvenated Faber would call out two division UFC champion Henry Cejudo after the fight, answering a challenge made by Cejudo about a decade ago.
?I heard Henry Cejudo challenged me to a fight,? Faber said in a post-fight interview (via Mike Bohn & Ken Hathaway of MMA Junkie). ?Henry, I remember 10 years ago when you challenged me as a friendly gesture. I?m down to get in there and mix it up. I do this to test myself against the best in the world. I want to take fights that make sense. I took this fight because if I didn?t beat him, I?d know I don?t need to go for super fights.?
Cejudo got wind of what was said by Faber and would issue the following response through Twitter:
It could be awhile before a potential title bout happens, as Cejudo is currently recovering from shoulder surgery and could be out of action until the end of the year.
