Cejudo fought Yadong in the main event of UFC Seattle this past February, where he lost a technical decision after the former two-division champion was unable to continue at the start of the fourth round. 'The Kung Fu Kid' caught 'Triple C' with an eye-poke that hindered his vision and resulted in him being unable to see even after a full five minutes of recovery time.

In his latest appearance on the JAXXON PODCAST, Cejudo was asked whether he had any resentment toward White for not booking a rematch. He said:

"No, I'm over it.. I'm in this game to make money. Like, I've already done everything. I'm here to make money. So that's why I told the ref, I'm like, 'Hey, man, give me my five minutes'. I'm gonna chill, I'mma kick it. Recovery time, run, do what I can. Get another minute and then be back."

"Bisping came out after the fight, he was like, 'That's fu**ing bullsh*t. I lost an eye because of this fu**ing sh*t and the rules do need to change'. The fu**ed up thing about it is once [Yadong] poked me, he was like this [fingers pointing out] and the referee never warned him."
