However, the one thing he never got in the UFC was his hands on championship gold. That doesn’t mean Cerrone has some major accomplishments in the sport.

Cerrone held titles as a kickboxer but has never won one in the UFC. However, his accomplishments get more impressive considering his longevity.

But Cerrone has revealed that he was never in it for the glory. He has a whole lot of stories to tell from his long career, and it seems that was the idea all along for Cowboy.

“They don’t mean anything to me. I don’t care. I don’t know, I was there, I lived it, I checked out. maybe my kids will like them one day, so that’s why Lindsey keeps them. If it were up to me they’d be in a trash can.”

Donald Cerrone: Atypical mentality

The mentality to fighting that Cowboy Cerrone brings is hard to match. He goes out fighting hard every time he steps into the cage, no matter who the opponent.

Cerrone has fought in some major fights but has never earned the ultimate glory. At this point, with Cowboy not winning in his last 5 outings, it seems he never will hold a title in his career.

But that isn’t what he cares about. He has wars from inside the cage that could furnish content for 2 complete memoirs.

Nobody has the miles and stories to tell as Cerrone does. From his debut against Jamie Varner in 2010 to his super-fight against Conor McGregor, Cerrone has seen a lot more than even the most tenured UFC fighters.
