Henry Cejudo says Brendan Allen's wife sent his wife a 'nasty message'
Cejudo did not reveal what the message said but told Allen not to bring his family into their feud: "let men be men".
Henry Cejudo says Brendan Allen's wife sent his wife "a nasty message" as their feud has spilled beyond the two fighters.
Speaking on his podcast, Pound 4 Pound with Kamaru & Henry, Cejudo said: "Whatever happens between men happens between men. Apparently, Brendan Allen's wife sent a message, a nasty message to my wife."
He did not say what the message contained. "She just went off, bro. I didn't wanna repeat it, man," he said, adding: "Don't bring my family into this... let men be men."
Cejudo has criticised Allen for representing Brazil, and returned to it. "And now I kinda understand why this dude is representing Brazil," he said. "Me and him are both American, married to Brazilians, and have American kids."
Allen had called out Cejudo and his co-host Kamaru Usman earlier this week.
