Mixed martial arts fighter Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone is renowned for his bravery and perseverance in the octagon. The former UFC fighter has solidified his reputation as one of the most gifted and tough competitors in the sport with an incredible professional record of 37 wins and 16 losses. It appears, though, that Cerrone‘s respect and adoration go beyond the world of combat sports. His most recent remarks about aspiring NASCAR racer Hailie Deegan on her Instagram post illustrate this.

The duo was seen engaging with each other in Deegan’s Instagram comment section. Cerrone dropped a pleasant compliment for Deegan, and she was quick to give ‘Cowboy’ a witty reply.

Fans of Deegan reacted to the remark with joy and love, and many of them voiced their admiration for both Cerrone and Deegan. Deegan replied to the UFC legend’s comment by promoting her racing suit clothing brand ‘Alpinestars’. Deegan replied – “gotta get on that Apline Stars program”.

It’s not uncommon for professional athletes to support and encourage each other, even if they compete in different arenas. The 39-year-old himself has been on the receiving end of such support. ‘Cowboy’ received a heap of praise and appreciation from fighters and fans after he made a crucial announcement back in 2022.
