Henry Cejudo is preparing for his next fight under the UFC banner, as he’ll compete inside of the Octagon in less than a week.

A fight between the UFC flyweight champion and Marlon Moraes for the vacant UFC bantamweight title will serve as the headliner of the UFC 238 pay-per-view (PPV) event. The title is vacant due to TJ Dillashaw voluntarily relinquishing the belt after a failed United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) drug test. Dillashaw was suspended for one year and fined $10,000 by the New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) for the failed test.

The match-up makes sense, as Cejudo is the latest fighter to beat Dillashaw while Moraes has emerged as the top challenger for the bantamweight title. Moraes is fresh off a submission win over Raphael Assuncao. Cejudo finished Dillashaw to successfully retain the UFC flyweight title in the headliner of UFC on ESPN+ 1.
