One of the sport’s most recognisable names is back in the spotlight with a fresh project.
Henry Cejudo, one of MMA’s most accomplished fighters, stepped away from competition in December.
The former bantamweight and flyweight champion made his exit following a battle with Payton Talbott at UFC 323, confirming his decision to retire soon after the loss.
Cejudo had already started hinting at what might come next. He told Bloody Elbow before his final fight that he was interested in writing children’s books.
But that was not the only major shift he was planning.
Henry Cejudo enters the water business after his MMA retirement
After retiring from MMA, ‘Triple C’ has reemerged with a new venture, this time outside of combat sports. The former two-weight UFC champion has moved into the water industry.
Cejudo posted on X that he is “just getting started” with his water company. He also shared a video tour of One Water’s facility in Edmonton, Canada, giving fans a look behind the scenes.
“A lot of you guys have been wondering, ‘What’s going on with Triple C after retirement?’ Well guess what guys…” he said in the post.
“I wanna give you guys a private tour (of) my water company: One Water.
He added: “It tastes amazing! Take a trip, with every sip.”
Henry Cejudo has not completely stepped away from combat sports
Even though Cejudo has shifted his focus to ventures outside the cage, he is still not done with the world of combat sports.
Less than a month after wrapping up his UFC career, ‘Triple C’ already has a match lined up for 2026.
The former two-division champion is set to return against fellow MMA veteran Urijah Faber at Real American Freestyle on February 26.
They will be joining a growing list of notable fighters who have stepped into the organisation, including names like Colby Covington, Bo Nickal, Yoel Romero, Belal Muhammad and Arman Tsarukyan.
