UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor recently accused Donald Cerrone of quitting against Rafael dos Anjos, here’s his response….

Former UFC lightweight title contender Donald Cerrone returns in the main event of UFC Fight Night 83 tonight (Sunday February 21, 2016) as he faces fellow cowboy Alex Oliveira at welterweight. Cerrone makes his 170-pound debut against the Brazilian grappler with knockout power in an attempt to revive his career after a tough loss in his last lightweight fight.

Facing the 155-pound champion Rafael dos Anjos in December 2015, ‘Cowboy’ got dominated and finished by strikes in the first round. ‘RDA’ blasted Cerrone with a liver kick and a barrage of punches to finish the fight before it even got started, and a clearly disheartened Cerrone had his impressive eight fight win streak snapped.

Now lined up with a dangerous opponent in Oliveira, Cerrone must win big to remain in with a realistic chance at gaining a UFC title before retiring. One fighter that wasn’t very positive about ‘Cowboy’s’ last showing was his old rival and UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor. ‘The Notorious’ accused Cerrone of being a quitter, and ‘Cowboy’ responded during a recent fan Q&A. Also check out how Cerrone responds to some trolls that had some harsh words for him:
Wow, it seems even the fans are taking the opportunity to kick the cowboy after the toughest loss in his career to date. Perhaps he was just caught cold against dos Anjos, or maybe it’s the old case of big fight chokes that Cerrone has admitted to suffering from in the past, either way his fans will hope to see an improved version of ‘Cowboy’ in the Octagon tonight, as he faces a tough test in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Do you think we’ll see Donald Cerrone in the welterweight title picture in the future?

Cerrone Fully Aware of Reebok Fines

Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone (28-7) will be fighting Alex Oliveira (13-3) on Sunday at UFC Fight Night 83. This will be Cowboy’s Welterweight debut against the Brazilian. Cerrone is coming off of a 155 title loss to Rafael Dos Anjos in December.

He made headlines after the bout after receiving a hefty fine for having a small stitch on his mandatory Reebok shorts that featured an American flag. According to ESPN, the Jackson trained fighter says he will probably wear the same patch for Sunday’s fight in Pittsburgh despite potential fines.

“There’s a good chance I will, yeah” Cowboy said.

Donald Cerrone is slated to make $20,000 in Reebok sponsorship money on Sunday, according to the UFC Outfitting policy.

There’s A Good Chance Donald Cerrone Will Violate Reebok Policy Again

Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone will return to action this Sunday (February 21, 2015), taking on a fellow “Cowboy” in Alex Oliveira at UFC Fight Night 83 from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Cerrone is coming off of a devastating 66-second loss to lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos at this past December’s UFC on FOX 17, but that wasn’t the

Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone will return to action this Sunday (February 21, 2015), taking on a fellow “Cowboy” in Alex Oliveira at UFC Fight Night 83 from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Cerrone is coming off of a devastating 66-second loss to lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos at this past December’s UFC on FOX 17, but that wasn’t the only thing that went wrong for “Cowboy”. He was also fined by Reebok for violating the official outfitting policy.

Apparently Cerrone had a patch on his Reebok shorts that wasn’t allowed, but he admits that he expected to face consequences:

“I was fully aware I would be fined before the last fight,” he continued.

“I knew the circumstances going in, I just didn’t know how much I was getting fined. Dana and I talked and came to some grounds that we’re going to stick to.” Cerrone told ESPN.

Although the fine ended up being more than he had expected, Cerrone may indeed continue to play by his own rules this weekend:

“There’s a pretty good chance I will [wear the offending patch on Sunday], yeah,” he said.

“Cowboy” may be playing with fire here, however, as he has even went on record to say in the past that his manager was warned about his actions. In fact, another violation could result in the fighter essentially being cut from the UFC, something that would hinder his hectic fighting schedule.

While he missed out on a championship belt in his last fight, Cerrone seems to be strictly focused on fighting as often as possible, and he will be moving up in weight this weekend to do so.

At the end of the day, however, the weight doesn’t seem to affect him:

“[Fighting at welterweight] makes camp a little better,” he explained.

“I don’t have to pick and choose what I eat. I don’t care though, I’ll fight at 155. Either one. I’ll go to 185 pounds, who cares? Just give me fights.”

Do you think “Cowboy” will follow through with his plan, or does he have too much to lose here?

Without A Horse: Four Reasons Why Donald Cerrone Will Never Be UFC Champ

Few fighters are able to put forth the admirable consistency that Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone did from November 2013 to May 2015. The 32-year-old veteran racked off an astonishing eight-straight Octagon victories en route to challenging champion Rafael dos Anjos for the UFC lightweight strap back at UFC on FOX 17 this past December.

Few fighters are able to put forth the admirable consistency that Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone did from November 2013 to May 2015.

The 32-year-old veteran racked off an astonishing eight-straight Octagon victories en route to challenging champion Rafael dos Anjos for the UFC lightweight strap back at UFC on FOX 17 this past December. But despite his past success against divisional standouts like Benson Henderson, Jim Miller, Myles Jury, and Edson Barboza, Cerrone was bulldozed by “RDA” to the tune of a 66-second TKO loss.

In typical Cerrone fashion, he booked a fight just 13 days after the title defeat at this weekend’s at UFC Fight Night 83 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he takes on a fellow “Cowboy,” late replacement Alex Oliveira, in his welterweight debut.

While Cerrone’s skillset and size could translate well to the 170-pound faction, it’s going to be a long road ahead before he finds himself contending for another promotional title. In fact, he may never get there again.

Here are four glaring reasons why the Colorado native will never taste UFC gold.

It took a lot of re-working and signing of new talent, but the 13-fight card for Sunday’s UFC Fight Night 83 event is set once again.
