“Triple C & Mighty back together again” – Demetrious Johnson is back to training with Henry Cejudo

Everyone's favorite frenemies are back together again. ONE flyweight world champion Demetrious Johnson is back in the gym and training with former UFC world champion Henry Cejudo.

Cejudo and the all-time great Johnson previously worked with each other when 'Mighty Mouse' was getting ready for his showdown against then-ONE flyweight king Adriano Moraes. 'Mighty Mouse' won that fight and captured the flyweight crown, by way of knockout.

Johnson shared a picture of the two fighters training alongside one another on Instagram:

"Triple C & Mighty back together again!! Good work at @fightready with the booiss this [morning]."

Cejudo and Johnson are 1-1 in their series against one another, trading the world title back and forth. The Olympian was a two-division UFC champion when he vacated his titles in 2020. Now, likely in 2023, he will be fighting for the throne he never lost against Aljamain Sterling.

Demetrious Johnson is likely helping Cejudo get fight ready for his shot at the UFC bantamweight world title against Sterling. While the fight has not yet been officially announced by the UFC, MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz told John Morgan:

"Aljo is fighting Henry Cejudo – it’s done, you know, it’s done. It’s just – the UFC said it’s done, he knows it’s done.”

Demetrious Johnson has been called out by Jarred Brooks and Mikey Musumeci

Everyone seems to want a piece of 'Mighty Mouse.' Demetrious Johnson has been called out by both 'The Monkey God' Jarred Brooks and American grappling star 'Dath Rigatoni' Mikey Musumeci.

In an interview with MMA Sucka, Brooks explained:

“He [Johnson] needs somebody like me, he needs a heel, he needs somebody who’s gonna push him and have a good fight. Because I think he’s a very durable fighter for a small fighter. So, after a while, we’ll see how it goes for five rounds.”

The ONE flyweight submission grappling world champion Musumeci told ONE Championship in an interview:

“Right now, my dream matchup would be with Demetrious ‘Mighty Mouse’ Johnson, just because of the number of eyes we could get on submission grappling, with me and such a legend like him."

Jarred Brooks' next match will be a showdown for the ONE strawweight world championship headlining on December 3rd at ONE 164. Musumeci confirmed that he will next be grappling at ONE on Prime Video 6 on January 13th but no opponent has been confirmed.
