Donald Cerrone says he’d gladly be face of a fighters union: ‘I’m not afraid’

LOS ANGELES — Donald Cerrone believes that UFC fighters need a union and he doesn't mind being the one to speak out on it publicly.

"Cowboy" has been adamant about fighters needing some kind of representation for months, but now he has taken it up a notch. Cerrone said at a UFC 205 media lunch in Downtown LA on Wednesday that he'll gladly be the vocal champion of the cause.

"I'll gladly put my head on the chopping block and say I'll be the front face of this mother f*cker," said Cerrone, who fights Kelvin Gastelum on the huge card Nov.
