Donald Cerrone took on Conor McGregor at UFC 246. That fight ended sooner than anyone expected it to. Cerrone faced a lot of backlash for it and he has finally spoken about it.

Conor McGregor was set to return to the UFC after a long break. His last professional outing with the UFC was his match against Khabib Nurmagomedov. It had been almost 2years and it was time. So who would be McGregor’s opponent at his momentous comeback event?

Donald Cerrone stepped up to the task. Put through a lot of pressure and hesitation, Cerrone made his way to the ring. Unfortunately, the outcome wasn’t one he desired. Conor McGregor announcing his arrival back to the UFC finished Cerrone off within 40 seconds of the first round. Cerrone was left scrambling since the first strike and never truly found his rhythm. And before he knew it, it was all over.

Donald Cerrone calls them stupid!

Cerrone was then accused of throwing the fight. For being involved in fixing and even heard speculation of him being bought out. That is absolutely false. Cowboy denies all these allocations and finally gave us an answer.
Speaking with ESPN MMA’s Brett Okamoto he said, “ A lot of people say that I threw the fight. I say you’ve got the wrong guy to think I would sell my soul. There is not enough money in the world to have me throw a fight. Are you kidding me? Please!”

Cerrone continued and addressing these people he said, “ That’s just funny. Like you guys are so stupid. For one, the infrastructure of the UFC would have to be so corrupt for them to pay me. You know what I mean, it’s ass and eye to think like that would be a thing. But there are people who truly believe that the world is flat. So you know there’s just dumb people out there. I don’t know what to tell you, man. People are crazy!”
