After 6 matches without any victory, Donald Cerrone is facing leaving UFC. At the age of 38, this cowboy can hardly fight the rising young punchers.
Since 2019, Cerrone has received 3 consecutive TKO defeats against the three most powerful names of Lightweight UFC, Tony Ferguson, Justin Gaethje and Conor McGregor. Then received a controversial defeat against Anthony Pettis. It seemed that it was possible to remove the gauze in the draw against Niko Price but the results became unqualified because Price was discovered to use marijuana.
Cerrone is always the most diligent boxer in the UFC tournament, always ready to play with anyone. With his tireless dedication, Cerrone has been given another chance by UFC.
UFC President Dana White told reporter Aaron Bronsteter of the TSN channel as follows: “Cerrone wants to go down to the Lightweight weight and play another match. And I allow that. Of course, if not winning, it will be his last match at UFC.”
Currently, Cerrone's schedule has not been revealed, this boxer needs time to recover after the defeat of TKO in the first half before Alex Morono at UFC Vegas 26.
The next match will be the last chance for Cerrone, so he will be under great pressure in training.
