BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- Don’t expect Michelle Waterson to take a public side in the spat between Donald Cerrone and Mike Winkeljohn.
Tensions between Winkeljohn, the co-founder of the famed JacksonWink MMA gym in downtown Albuquerque, N.M., and Cerrone, one of the gym’s longest-standing and most respected fighters, surprisingly went mainstream in August after Cerrone criticized the coach during an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience.
The way Michelle Waterson sees it, JacksonWink is a family environment, and the tiff between Cerrone and Winkeljohn is the sort of thing that happened between families.
