Former two-division UFC champion Henry Cejudo felt like he wasted his time watching UFC 282 on Saturday and felt like the judges should be under fire.
“I think the judges stole the show on this card. Some of the judging, it was just absolutely ridiculous,” Cejudo said on his YouTube channel. “You almost have to put these judges under fire because it’s like, what are you watching? I truly don’t understand.”
Cejudo couldn’t believe the judges scored the co-main event in favor of Paddy Pimblett instead of Jared Gordon, and believes it was one of the worst decisions in the promotion’s history.
“Paddy the Fatty, I just don’t know what to say. A lot of these guys are just delusional thinking that they’re better than what they really are. He lost that fight,” Cejudo said. “I think the whole world saw that that’s one of the worst decisions ever.”
“Talk about complete robbery. I has nothing to do really with Paddy. It has to do with the judges,” Cejudo said. “This isn’t a popularity contest. First they did it with Sean O’Malley against Petr Yan.”
“I just really don’t get it,” Cejudo continued. “That was just a terrible decision from the judges standpoint.”
“These judges absolutely suck.”
