He is a bit long in the tooth at this point. Unless it’s like a Ferguson, Diaz, old warrior type, I’d rather not see it. Would hate for him to come back and get scheduled like Diaz/luque. Makes no sense.
fighters who come out of retirement always lose
Tony. The only winnable fight for either of them.
That hair looks preposterous.
Lol you finally realized you were talking to yourself on mma.tv?
WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Tough fighter, but for me, his legacy will always be the Conor bout. He completely choked in that fight and acted like a giddy fanboy.
That fight proved to me, that when it was his time to shine, he was never gonna be ready for it.
Arguably the greatest ever gatekeeper in the UFC.
I mean, I’ll watch but I will also cringe every time he takes damage.
hoping more come here but its a start
Good idea
so is he subject to 6 months of testing before coming back? lets watch him deflate
More who. There’s nobody left there…
Didn’t he get Diddy’d by a bill?
With USADA out of the way, it’s easier to “get off steroids”…
Earlier today, UFC Lightweight and Welterweight veteran Donald Cerrone stirred the pot by cancelling his retirement and announcing a UFC comeback. The former title challenger’s announcement was partially expected, because MMA retirements generally don’t last (ask this former “Cowboy” foe). However, given that the retired Hall of Famer was openly taking steroids and enjoying the benefits, it seemed like there were obstacles between the striker and a return to the Octagon.
Well, there’s at least one more. UFC CEO Dana White has always been a fan of Cerrone’s anyone, anywhere attitude and exciting fighting style, but White was less than enthused about the idea of Cerrone back in the Octagon. In fact, he pretty much shut down the whole idea outright when asked about it after Tuesday’s episode of Contenders Series.
“I hate it,” White responded when asked for his feelings about Cerrone’s potential return. “Love him, hate that. He retired, it’s just for what, what’s left to prove? If you want to make money, let’s figure something else out. When guys retire, they retire for a reason. They retire because they know it’s over. You know it is. So, I think that — not just this sport but any professional sport — it’s hard to walk away from. Not just the money, obviously that’s a very hard part of it but the feeling of walking out of that tunnel, the feeling of getting in the cage, and the place is packed.
“Every time we’re at a show, when you show ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone on the screen, the place goes nuts. He’s beloved. He’s beloved because the guy goes to war, and he’s been in wars for years. It’s time to not go to war anymore man, there’s nothing left to prove for him.”
When asked to fully confirm that Cerrone won’t return to the Octagon, White reiterated again, “I’d rather work something else out.”
As White explained, it’s probably for the best that Cerrone doesn’t return to face some UFC young gun to be put out to pasture. If he’s really that motivated to compete again, he could always seek release from his UFC contract and head over to the UFC retirement home that is Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship.
