Twisted Steel is a difficult bull to ride. According to White, the last person to ride him lasted a mere two and a half seconds. So how will Cowboy Cerrone fare? In a recent X post, White accepted Cerrone’s challenge and issued a reward of his own.
“What’s up guys? So for those of you that don’t know I own a bull. His name is Twisted Steel and he bucks in PBR. So this last weekend, he was bucking at MSG, Cowboy Cerrone was there and Cowboy Cerrone called him out saying that he wants to ride my bull.” He told his fans.

“So, Cowboy Cerrone. . . So I think the best date would be Saturday, May 18th, during the PBR finals at ATNT Stadium in Dallas, Texas. So I will donate $50,000 to the charity of your choice for you to ride him. If you last 8 seconds, I’ll give you a $100,000.” White declared as the video ends.
A big challenge for a big fighter. Will Cerrone be able to pull it off? He has previously been associated with the Professional Bull Riders or the PBR. In fact, he is a fond bull owner himself. A few years ago, he bought an offspring of a bull called Black Pearl, a bull that has won more than $500,000 in his career. But what about his fighting career?
