Cormier listed the threat that Cejudo posed as a former double champion and expressed his trust in 'Funk Master' to make the right decision:"To go right now against a guy like Henry Cejudo when you're not ready? That is not good. Because Cejudo is so thorough in his preparation that even though you might feel like he can be a joke at times, he can be cringe at times, this dude is a winner of the highest caliber. And I feel like Aljamain Sterling needs to be a 110 percent if he's going to fight the former double champion Henry Cejudo. You can't doubt the 'Funk Master'. And if you're not prepared, this dude will drag you into deep waters."Check out Cormier's full comments below:Daniel Cormier@dc_mmaNew 3 rounds is live now and I get into the bantamweights and my thought on the state of the division and what happens going forward. youtu.be/cft7DQijl7w @funkmasterMMA @HenryCejudo709New 3 rounds is live now and I get into the bantamweights and my thought on the state of the division and what happens going forward. youtu.be/cft7DQijl7w @funkmasterMMA @HenryCejudo https://t.co/Dq91mooB4tAljamain Sterling confirms that the fight against Henry Cejudo will happenAljamain Sterling is nursing a torn right bicep that has led to a delay in his return to action.
