With questions mounting about when or where UFC 250 will take place, Frankie Edgar and Henry Cejudo have traded verbal shots over a theoretical match-up between the two.

Cejudo is currently scheduled to defend the bantamweight title against Jose Aldo at the May 9th card, which was supposed to take place in Brasilia, Brazil. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, however, it’s believed the UFC is planning to hold the event in the U.S.. As a result, it’s not known if Aldo will be able to attend.

With Aldo’s booking up in the air, Edgar let Cejudo know he’s down to fight, and the champ was quick to respond.

Hey @HenryCejudo if Aldo can’t make it to the show you know I’m game. I ain’t bending any knees but I might put my foot in your ass.

Well, well, well look who we have here! Frankie “The wrong answer” Edgar. The only foot thats going up someone’s ass is my foot in yours. You saw what I did to your training partner 🔪💀 you could be next to Bend The Knee to King Triple C! You have competition sunshine @dominickcruz ❤️ #Goatkilling

Cejudo is coming off a stoppage win over Edgar’s teammate, Marlon Moraes, last June. The win delivered the former flyweight champ the bantamweight title.
