Former two-division UFC champion Henry Cejudo said it is "too premature" to label Petr Yan as the bantamweight greatest of all time, according to a report by MMA Junkie's Farah Hannoun on Friday, October 30, 2026.

Cejudo, who held titles at flyweight and bantamweight, argued that Yan's resume does not yet warrant GOAT status in the 135-pound division.

The comments come as debates continue over the historical rankings in the UFC's bantamweight class.
