Phoenix native Henry Cejudo headlines UFC Fight Night at Seattle's Climate Pledge Arena on Feb. 22, taking on Song Yadong in a battle of bantamweight contenders.

Former two-division champion Henry Cejudo will fight No. 8 contender Song Yadong in the main event of UFC Fight Night on Feb. 22 in Seattle, UFC Chief Business Officer Hunter Campbell told ESPN on Monday.

A former UFC bantamweight champion, Cejudo (16-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC) is targeted to return vs. Song Yadong (21-8-1 MMA, 10-3-1 UFC) in a main event bout at UFC Fight Night 252. The event takes place Feb. 22 at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle.

Henry Cejudo is set to return to the Octagon on February 22 where he will once again look to earn his first win since deciding to comeback from his 2020 retirement. “Triple C” has suffered back-to-back losses in consecutive years to teammates Aljamain Sterling and Merab Dvalishvili who are the former and current holders of the bantamweight title.

Pantoja (29-5 MMA, 13-3 UFC) has already notched three title defenses over Brandon Royval, Steve Erceg, and most recently Kai Asakura at UFC 310. He holds wins over the majority of the UFC’s top 15 flyweights.

Cejudo will headline UFC Fight Night 252 and, per ESPN’s Mike Coppinger, will face bantamweight Song Yadong in the main event in Seattle at Climate Pledge Arena on Feb. 22. The Coronado graduate retired in 2020 but returned to the UFC in 2023.
