Henry Cejudo is returning to the wrestling mats.
Promotional officials confirmed to MMA Fighting that the Olympic gold medalist and former two-division UFC champion is set to headline RAF 6, which takes place Feb. 28 at Mullett Arena in Tempe, Ariz., streaming exclusively on FOX Nation.
As of now, an opponent has not been named for Cejudo.
Also set to compete on the card is 37-fight UFC veteran Clay Guida, who will face an opponent to be announced at a later date in the co-main event.
Cejudo recently announced his retirement — for the second time — from mixed martial arts competition after competing in his final bout at UFC 323. Cejudo dropped a unanimous decision to Payton Talbott, his fourth straight loss.
“The Messenger” was winless after ending his first retirement — which happened after Cejudo stopped Dominick Cruz in the second round at UFC 249 in May 2020. After a three-year hiatus, Cejudo returned and dropped a split decision to then-bantamweight champ Aljamain Sterling at UFC 288 in May 2023. The 38-year-old also dropped a unanimous decision to Merab Dvalishvili, and a technical decision to Song Yadong in the main event of UFC Seattle in February.
Before competing in MMA, Cejudo won the Olympic gold medal in 2008 to become, at the time, the youngest American to achieve that feat at just 21 years of age.
