"I won't be so generous next time" - Henry Cejudo vows to put a bad beating on T.J. Dillashaw in potential rematch
Henry Cejudo claims a rematch with T.J. Dillashaw is "easy money" for him. When the pair fought each other the first time, Cejudo violently knocked Dillashaw out inside just 32 seconds of the very first round. If the pair fight again, Cejudo claims he won't be so generous and will put a beating on 'Lieutenant Dan'.
After T.J. Dillashaw scraped his way to a split decision victory against Cory Sandhagen at UFC Vegas 32, Cejudo's manager Ali Abdelaziz claimed 'Triple C' will once again KO Dillashaw if they fight again.
"I'm sorry. Henry Cejudo KO this guy very easy, I don't care what everyone saying," said Abdelaziz.
Henry Cejudo responded to Abdelaziz's tweet, saying that he was generous in giving Dillashaw a 32-second beatdown when they fought. In a potential rematch, however, Cejudo claims he'd pick him apart again, this time more violently.
"Easy money for me! I was generous to give him a 32 second beat down. I won’t be so generous next time! #bendtheknee", said the former champ-champ.
"This is my division now" - Petr Yan warns T.J. Dillashaw
T.J. Dillashaw is a wanted man after UFC Vegas 32. Following his successful return after serving a two-year suspension, Dillashaw is being called out by the cream of the bantamweight division.

"Respect to the warrior @TJDillashaw. Beating you is always been my goal. This is my division now."
Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov is also interested in a potential showdown between T.J. Dillashaw and Petr Yan. Following Dillashaw's win, Nurmagomedov took to Twitter to propose a duel between Yan and Dillashaw in Russia.
Khabib Nurmagomedov kept a close eye on the proceedings of the main event bout between T.J. Dillashaw and Cory Sandhagen. 'The Eagle' opined that 'The Sandman' won the bout on his scorecard.
