Donald Cerrone Reflects on his Loss to McGregor

Donald Cerrone, a veteran fighter in the UFC, recently gave insight into his fight against Conor McGregor. He explained that the biggest stage, with millions of eyes watching, was supposed to be his moment, but he didn’t want to be there. He said that the feeling was strange, and he couldn’t answer it any clearer.

Cerrone also revealed that when he was in the back waiting for the fight, he didn’t even want to go out there. ‘Cowboy’ explained that when McGregor gave him the opportunity to take the door and get out; he took it. He described this as his “inner b*tch” taking over and admits to having to live with that every day.

The statement from Cerrone is a rare insight into the mindset of a fighter, and it’s clear that he’s still coming to terms with his defeat. It’s a reminder that even professional fighters are human and can have a range of emotions going into a fight, even if it’s on the biggest stage.
