Henry Cejudo takes hilarious 'Christmas gift' jibe at Sean O'Malley by cosplaying 'Sugar'

Henry Cejudo appears to be in festive spirits given his recent Christmas-themed taunt directed at Sean O'Malley. The pair have traded insults many times in the past, engaging in a war of words online over a potential bout in the future.

Cejudo's latest jibe seems to be referencing O'Malley's victory over Petr Yan at UFC 280. 'Sugar' won a controversial decision, and many felt that the judges had given it to O'Malley for certain 'PR' reasons, similar to Paddy Pimblett's surprising and controversial victory at UFC 282.

'Triple C' Photoshopped an image of himself to appear like O'Malley, who sports colorful hair and an abundance of tattoos. Cejudo posted the image on Twitter, with the following caption:

"Christmas is coming up... I'm ready for the Judges to hand over my gifts"

Henry Cejudo is of the opinion that Sean O'Malley was 'gifted' his win against Yan. But on closer inspection, many fans and pundits alike have found that an argument could certainly be made that 'Sugar' won the fight.

Aljamain Sterling vs. Henry Cejudo not being confirmed is driving Sean O'Malley "crazy"

Following Aljamain Sterling's recent victory over T.J. Dillashaw at UFC 280, fans were left wondering what could be next for 'Funk Master'. Considering Sean O'Malley defeated Sterling's former opponent Petr Yan at UFC 280 as well, a fight between 'Sugar' and 'Funk Master' was mentioned.

But Dana White admitted in the UFC 280 post-event press conference that a fight between Sterling and Henry Cejudo makes the most sense. 'Triple C' has been retired since 2020 but has teased a comeback on several occasions. Cejudo appears to be serious about his eagerness to return against 'Funk Master' for the UFC bantamweight title.

However, Sean O'Malley has a timeline of his own, and the lack of confirmation regarding a fight between Cejudo and Sterling has begun to frustrate 'Sugar'. In a tweet posted last week, O'Malley stated that he would like to fight in July, so the other two need to "hurry up and fight."

Now, during the most recent episode of TimboSugarShow, O'Malley expressed his annoyance at the situation:

"It drives me crazy dude, why is this not happening?! What is it? It's one of those guys... I don't think it's a money thing. Henry literally retired 'cause he wasn't getting paid enough and now he's broke and wants to come back... Aljo won't get paid more, he's not a draw. So what is it? A weight thing?"
