UFC lightweight fighter Donald Cerrone, spoke on prommaradio and discussed the popular topic of teammate fighting teammate and had an interesting answer:
“I still am, 100 percent (Rashad’s friend). Every day, I would walk in and say, ‘I’m team Rashad.’ It was just like that, I wear everything on my sleeve, I say how it is and I talk right to people. I would tell Jon (Jones), ‘I’m team Rashad, man. That’s my boy, that’s my brother.’ And Jones is cool man, he is a cool dude. I have no hard feelings.
I go out with him and hang all the time and I train with him. It’s not like I would take his training and tell Rashad, I wouldn’t go that far. But he is like, ‘I respect the fact that you were friends with Rashad before you met me and that you’re sticking by your boy, and I respect that.’ As for me, I will fight anyone.
I will fight anybody. I would fight Leonard (Garcia), and I live with him. Does that answer your question? I would fight Clay (Guida), and he will still be my boy. I mean, this is what we do, we’re professionals and there is going to come a time when teammates are going to have to fight. That’s just the way it goes.”
Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone will take on Jeremy ‘Lil Heathen’ Stephens on May 15th for UFC on Fuel TV 3. A fight that surely has the potential to be Fight of the night.
