Henry Cejudo is now officially the ‘Champ-Champ’ as he stopped Marlon Moraes in the third round at the main event of UFC 238 in Chicago, Illinois.

Cejudo who was already the flyweight champion moved up in weight class to fight Marlon Moraes for the vacant bantamweight title. Cejudo had knocked out TJ Dillashaw, the then-bantamweight champion in the first round and was supposed to move up and fight Dillashaw in the rematch but Dillashaw failed a drug test and the bantamweight title got vacant.

After getting battered in the first round by Moraes with leg kicks, the flyweight champion Cejudo bounced back to win the second round. In the third round, Cejudo started hitting Moraes with a knee to the body and then took him down and landed several big punches. With less than a minute left on the clock, Cejudo started pounding Moraes with elbows when ultimately the referee Marc Goddard had to step in and wave it off.
