He added, “It’s good to step out and go there and spar and get with new guys that I don’t train with at the ranch all the time. We got into sparring again a lot this camp. I am trying to get my head movement down, so we’ll see if it works. You’ve seen my fights, I don’t move my head f****** ever.”
Donald Cerrone will implement changes in fighting style
For this fight, Cerrone has come out and said that fans can expect him to rely more on his wrestling and jiu-jitsu. He expects his opponent to rush him and try to get the finish as early as possible. Well, ‘Cowboy’ has plans to do that himself in this fight. “I am going to try to take him down, submit him. If that doesn’t work, I’ll stand him up and knock his head off,” Cerrone said.
