UFC 288: Sterling vs Cejudo
- Thread starter World B Free
- Start date
Just put it on. I got Cejudo
I got him, too, 'cause he used to co-host with Mike Tyson....lol......that's all I know.
Cejudo was the triple champ
2 ufc belts and 1 Olympic gold medal
He's corny but he's a bad little dude
Cool dat, appreciate the info, bruh. He comes with skills.
Cejudo hasn't fought in awhile so he may be rusty
Yeah, they say he retired three years ago......so we'll see
Just catching up on televised prelims now.
That Nzechukwu vs Clark fight was great. Finish was reminiscent of Jones vs Machida way back.

Yeah... I have to go back and check put some preliminary fights.
Elite wrestling pedigree for Cejudo, as noted in thread.
Sterling has height and reach on him, and solid BJJ skills. Gonna be interesting to see their grappling exchanges and defensive awareness when they tie up.
I think Cejudo will KO Sterling. I think he's really going to put the pressure on Aljo and get him off his game.
Yeah...It will be an interesting fight. Curious to see how the first few minutes go.
Agreed. See if ring rust is a factor.
Good matchup in that it’s very difficult to visualize. Could go a multitude of ways.
Yeah if Aljo is unable to wrestle or grapple, it’s a wrap.
Burns is never in a boring fight. I expect this fight to be a banger.
I hope he doesn’t get one of his kicks caught. Cejudo will eat that up for a takedown.
Likewise, if Sterling gets his back it is over. Sterling is legit. Took out Sandhagen in just over a minute a few yrs ago and Sand’s a bad dude in his own right. Sterling with plenty of confidence coming in. Gotta love it.
DC keys to victory for Burns is “Don’t be Russell Westbrook” 
He’s a fighter’s fighter. Taking on all challengers. Props to him and Belal. Big talents each of them.
@ his kicks, you can see it from a mile away.Every one of his high kicks have been blocked or just misses.
My concern is Aljo being too amped like he was in his first fight with Yan.

Agreed. The pace he set in the 1st fight was too difficult to maintain over 25 mins.
His strategy in 2nd fight was more suitable.
Too bad for Burns. Belal still isn’t beating Edwards.
