The California Kid, 35-11, says he can beat former two‑division UFC champion Henry Cejudo, even though the Olympic gold medalist is younger and has a wrestling pedigree. Faber, who hasn't fought since 2019, has stayed active in BJJ and believes experience and evolution will level the playing field.
The bout will take place Saturday, Feb. 28, 2026, at Mullett Arena on the Arizona State University campus in Tempe, Arizona. Both veterans bring a storied career to the cage, making the matchup a headline draw for RAF 6.
