UFC Denver’s Donald Cerrone: ‘F—k you, Winkeljohn’
Photo by Isaac Brekken/Getty ImagesIn late August, Donald Cerrone revealed that there was some “tension” between him and the famed Jackson-Winkeljohn Academy in Albuquerque. Specifically, “Cowboy” put Winkeljohn on blast for turning the superstar-laden stable into a “puppy mill” when the striking coach merged over with Greg Jackson in 2007.
Winkeljohn fired back at Cerrone, stating he is happier now that he was able to get rid of the division within the gym. It had since blown up into a full-scale drama for the public to witness, and for Cerrone, the animosity is still at an all-time high.
