Gloria Cejudo, Henry Cejudo’s older sister passes from cancer – former champ speaks

Former two-division UFC champion and Olympic gold medalist Henry Cejudo has opened up after the passing of his older sister, Gloria Cejudo.

“My older sister has been battling cancer for the last two years,” Cejudo said in an Instagram post. “I’ve never seen someone fight for their life like her. She played so many roles in my life including being my second mom. The most selfless person I have ever met. Thank you for teaching me about unconditional love. No more pain and suffering, rejoice with our Heavenly Father. Have those peaches in heaven you always wanted. Te amo y te quiero mucho mi hermana linda. Como te extraño. See you soon hermana ❤️ Gloria Nelly Cejudo”

Gloria announced her battle several years ago on social media and has been undergoing treatment ever since.  Unfortunately, just a few days shy of her 41st birthday, Gloria’s fight would end.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Cejudo family.
