They say laughter heals all wounds. Well, if that’s the case, consider former Israel Adesanya, Kamaru Usman and Henry Cejudo fully healed.
That’s because, on the latest episode of the “Pound 4 Pound” podcast, the three former UFC champions shared a hearty laugh about their current three-fight losing streaks when discussing the current state of their careers.
Check out the hilarious moment below (via X).
Adesanya pushed his losing streak to three after a second-round TKO loss to Nassourdine Imavov on Feb. 1. Three weeks later on Feb. 22, Cejudo suffered his third consecutive loss, a technical decision against Song Yadong following a nasty eye poke. As for Usman, injuries have caught up to him as he hasn’t been seen in the octagon since an October 2023 loss to Khamzat Chimaev at middleweight.
Given their ages – Cejudo 38, Usman 37, and Adesanya 35 – it’s unlikely that any of them will experience a career revival that takes them back to their glory days. But hey, it was a good run.
Keep smiling, champs.
