Henry Cejudo critiques GOAT talk for Petr Yan in UFC bantamweight division

Henry Cejudo expressed skepticism regarding the notion that Petr Yan is the greatest bantamweight in UFC history following Yan's title defense against Merab Dvalishvili at UFC 333 on October 24. Yan secured a unanimous decision victory, marking his first successful title defense. Cejudo argued that fans are prematurely considering Yan as the GOAT, pointing to the achievements of fighters like Dominick Cruz and Aljamain Sterling. Yan holds a 2-1 edge over Dvalishvili in their trilogy, but questions remain about his overall legacy in the bantamweight division. His next moves will likely influence the ongoing GOAT discussion.
