Donald Cerrone has had a rather incredible 2014 thus far, racking up not only three wins against top competition, but three impressive stoppages. Last night the train continued with a knockout win over the very durable Jim Miller in Atlantic City. There is no rest for Donald Cerrone, though, oh no, because Khabib Nurmagomadev wants to meet him in the ring and he wants it to be five rounds.
This is the fight that fans have been calling for, though, with many wanting to see Khabib Nurmagomadev against a top name like Cowboy Cerrone to help push him to the next level, closer to title contention. It would be an interesting clash of styles between Donald Cerrone and Nurmagomadev, but it seems like the right move to make.
I want 5 rounds with @Cowboycerrone , I want to test myself, @ufc @danawhite
