Cerrone has a message to the critics ahead of UFC Vegas: ‘I’m going to keep fighting my ass off’

Donald Cerrone dreads to think what could happen if he loses to Niko Price at UFC Vegas 11 but, whatever the outcome, ‘Cowboy’ plans to leave the UFC on his own terms, in his own time.

Many critics called for Cerrone to retire following his unanimous decision loss to Anthony Pettis at UFC 249 but, even on a four-fight skid, the UFC veteran plans to keep ‘fighting my ass off’.

“I don’t even want to think of losing and all the things that could happen, because I’ve trained my ass off and I’m ready to rock and roll, but I plan on being here for a long time,” Cerrone told the media ahead of UFC Fight Night 178 (h/t Steven Marrocco of MMA Fighting).
