UFC President Dana White announced that the veteran of the promotion American Donald Cerrone will have another fight. According to White, Cerrone wants to go down to lightweight, and he will give him that opportunity.
After the fight, Cerrone stated that he would not retire after losing and would not allow his legacy to end in defeat. Many fans were concerned about the loss of Cerrone’s TKO, which was his fourth since 2019. UFC President Dana White shares this concern when he spoke to the media about the current state of Cerrone’s career.
“So Cowboy, again, steps up,” said Dana White.
“Diego falls out of the fight, he steps up and takes a last minute replacement, co-main event. What he wants to do, he accepted this Diego fight and they both agreed to fight at 170. He wants to move down to 155 and get another fight, and I’m going to let him do that. ”
As the interview progressed, Dana was asked if Cerrone would be done in the UFC to lose his next fight.
“Yes. Yes, ”said Dana White.
