UFC’s Henry Cejudo to Wahlberg, Let’s Make a Movie!

EXCLUSIVE

UFC champ Henry Cejudo — the guy who beat Demetrious Johnson — says he’s flattered Mark Wahlberg thinks his life story could be a movie … and says he knows exactly who should play him! 

MARIO LOPEZ!!

Cejudo’s story is pretty amazing — he grew up poor in South Central L.A. … one of 7 children … his drug-addicted father was deported and died when Henry was 20. 

But, he worked like hell to be one of the best wrestlers in the world — and won a gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Summer Games when he was only 21. 

Then on Saturday — at age 31 — he beat DJ (one of the greatest UFC fighters ever) to win the UFC flyweight title. Amazing. 

Wahlberg told us Cejudo’s story has movie potential … and he would know. And, you can tell Henry is super flattered.
