The summer of Cowboy? It just might be.

Donald Cerrone said during a fan Q&A this weekend at UFC 234 weigh-ins in Melbourne, Australia that he’s fighting Conor McGregor this summer. On Instagram later, “Cowboy” wrote that the bout will be for the interim lightweight title.

“It’s definitely gonna be this year,” Cerrone said on stage, answering an Irish fan’s question. “This summer, I think, right? Hey, Irish, Australian, American. F*ckin’ root for whoever you want. I’m going in there to fight. I love it, man. I don’t care — boo, cheer.
