It’s now or never for Henry Cejudo, who will face Song Yadong in the Octagon at UFC Seattle. Without a win since 2020, Triple C is under intense pressure to maintain his top-five bantamweight status. His return to the UFC in 2023 did not go as anticipated, as he lost consecutive fights to Aljamain Sterling and Merab Dvalishvili. With another difficult test ahead, the former flyweight and bantamweight champion is fighting not just for a victory, but also to keep his name relevant in a stacked division.
While Cejudo’s in-ring legacy is debatable, his financial situation is another story. Despite earning millions in his MMA career, his net worth is substantially lower than expected. With years of high-profile bouts, sponsorships, and endorsement deals, what went wrong, and what is ‘Triple C’ worth in 2025? Without further ado, let’s find out!
Henry Cejudo’s Net Worth and Endorsements
Henry Cejudo has a net worth of $2 million as of 2025. While he has earned more than $3 million in total career payouts, taxes, expenses, and team payouts have reduced his overall net worth. His largest paycheck occurred at UFC 249. He earned $1.2 million for his fight against Dominick Cruz. Outside of the Octagon, Cejudo has grown his earnings with several endorsement deals. Hit N Move, F3 Energy, Topps, Lifted Trucks, Jimmy Bars, and VIIA have all sponsored him at some point during his career.
Henry Cejudo’s retirement was not even shown and he got paid less than Mackenzie Dern.

It is also worth noting that he also hosts the ‘Pound 4 Pound with Kamaru Usman & Henry Cejudo’ on both YouTube and Spotify, so that for sure would be giving his income a boost as well, However, when compared to some of his UFC contemporaries, his sponsorship money is much smaller in size. Despite his Olympic wrestling experience and two-division UFC success, his estimated annual earnings from fights and endorsements are $450,000.
Henry Cejudo’s UFC Payouts and Career Earnings
Cejudo’s UFC earnings come mainly from base wages, win bonuses, and PPV revenues. His fight against Aljamain Sterling at UFC 288 earned him a $500,000 base salary, plus $300,000 in PPV buys and $32,000 in sponsorships, for a total of $832,000. His last bout, against Merab Dvalishvili, earned him $150,000. However, the breakdown of the amount remains unknown.
Despite numerous high-paying fights, Cejudo’s net worth remains lower than many would expect. With his upcoming fight against Song Yadong, a win might not only return him to title contention but also improve his future earnings. So, what do you think? Will ‘Triple C’ be able to turn things around with a win? Let us know in the comments.
