Cejudo has already carved a successful career for himself away from fighting in the world of real estate, and said he’d love to help other retiring big-name fighters to maximize their star power in that sphere.
“There’s one thing that I’m really good at – I’m good at sales and branding and connecting myself with real estate and pretty much kind of showing financial freedom to these guys,” he explained.

“I’m getting ready to build my dream home. I’m buying a multi-million-dollar lot. If I wasn’t, if I was broke, I wouldn’t be able to be in this position. But I would love to help out a lot of these guys that have the name, but just don’t understand how to connect the dots.”
But before he can devote more of his time to help fellow veteran fighters, Cejudo plans on slowing the momentum of a rising young prospect. Talbott has been tipped for big things in the UFC’s bantamweight division. He’s 10-1, and he’s coming off an impressive win over Felipe Lima at UFC 317 last summer. But, crucially, Cejudo has him well scouted, having trained with him in the past.
“I know Payton. Payton’s come to my house and we’ve spent time together, but this is the game that I’m in. When I say, ‘anybody, anytime, anywhere,’ I mean it,” he said.
