Cejudo is on fire right now.

UFC Flyweight champion Henry Cejudo is on a hot streak right now, both in and out of the octagon.

Following his stunning 32-second victory against Bantamweight champion TJ Dillashaw at UFC on ESPN+ 1 this past weekend in Brooklyn, Cejudo spoke with ESPN's Ariel Helwani about his crush on Nikki Bella, and how he was actually seated near her on his recent flight.

"Nikki Bella has been my biggest crush so when she was sitting next to me, I was like, [Freaking out] 'How am I gonna approach this?' Then I thought, my little niece is nine years old and she loves the Bella Twins. She was Nikki Bella for Halloween and had a Bella birthday theme. I approach them and was like, 'Can you give my niece a shoutout?' She was super nice. I’m single, trilingual and ready to mingle."

Although Nikki Bella is reportedly dating her former "Dancing With The Stars" partner, Artem Chigvintsev, she seems open to meeting the Flyweight champ again. In fact, Nikki responded to Cejudo's comments on Ariel Helwani's MMA show by asking him out for drinks. 

Check out her rebuttal in the video embedded below.
