Tasked with snapping the worst slump of his career, Cerrone broke out in true “Cowboy” fashion, righting his three-fight losing streak with a scintillating first-round knockout of Yancy Medeiros on Sunday in the main event of UFC Austin. It was a much-needed respite for the 34-year-old welterweight contender, and the highlight-reel finish capped off a card full of dramatic flourishes, piggybacking off Derrick Lewis’ co-main event thunder over Marcin Tybura.

Yancy is such a good dude but you can’t play buddy/buddy with Cerrone during a fight.
