A top-ten ranked fighter in the welterweight division, Cerrone has earned the most bonus payments for outstanding performances of anyone in UFC/WEC history (18 and counting). Known as “Cowboy” because he lives on a ranch, wears wide-brimmed hats, and used to ride bulls in rodeos, the former pro kickboxer is a member of the legendary Jackson Wink MMA Academy in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Cerrone has challenged for world titles on four different occasions, and boasts wins over Rick Story, Patrick Cote, and Alex Oliveira. Before moving up to welterweight in 2016, Cerrone was a high-ranking lightweight, defeating Benson Henderson, Myles Jury, and Melvin Guillard. Known for taking fights on short notice just for the thrill, Cerrone is regarded as the “busiest” fighter in the UFC. He’s had at least four fights per year since 2013, adding to his reputation as a fan favorite who will fight anyone, anytime, anywhere.
Outside of the cage, Cerrone has appeared on television shows such as It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and the new Netflix series, Godless, co-starring Jeff Daniels and former UFC contender Keith Jardine.

Such a good fuckin' dude. Damn, this video makes me miss my grandma. Hope grandma Cerrone gets at least the 96 years mine got.

[@moosedrummer1]

CK 916 mine was 95. Died in 05. Miss her everyday. Was like a mother more than a grandmother.

[@ck9162]

I hear you. Mine was the exact same way. Lost her on August 8th this year.

[@truecrimejungle]

how is he a good good? He spent his entire life as a drop out getting into bar fights and going to jail just to be bailed out by his grandma "Cowboy knew his grandparents always showed up with a ride, cash and some of the wisdom grandpa doled out in spades. No matter the hour or the issue, his grandparents embodied the ethos of Shel Silverstein's children's book The Giving Tree, that grandma loved so much."...They then bought him a ranch and he was allowed to become a pro fighter making 500/fight while sleeping in luxury hotels as a trust fund baby. Wake the hell up people.

[@Alchemistic88]

Inspiring as fuck. Everything he does, he goes all in. You can see by all the things he is able to do, he's never stopped to veg. Doesn't strike me as the kinda guy who binge watches youtube, he's too busy learning how to do a backflip on a quad or how to navigate a squirrel suit or something, in between fighting in the top ranks at the highest level on Earth. I gotta up my game!

[@ryanodonnell455]

Alchemistic Academician and he's not only doing dope ass shit he's knocking people the fuck out in visceral fashion he's fucking mean that front kick last night holy sweet Jesus

[@stormrevenant]

It was a round kick but yeah, vicious KO.

[@mattnagatni]

Aniruddha Sharma switch kick lol but yee vicious

[@stormrevenant]

matt nagatani switching round-house kick. :)

[@mattnagatni]

Aniruddha Sharma touche lol

[@joseph4043]

“ I’m going to fight until I literally can’t anymore” Cowboy is such a bad ass I believe him when he says that

[@christianlacayo7616]

The ending got me, "I couldn't think of anything to do except yell JUMP and I caught him in my arms", Genuinely moving.

[@thatguyovathere8684]

Christian Lacayo right bro my eyes started watering DAMN ALLERGIES LMAO

[@leeskeet5746]

I thought straight away... yes that explains why he is like he is!! Lol...

[@user-nj1zu2nf1x]

Grandma is definitely off her rocker tho. Turned him into a psycho wild man

[@benjaminadams5477]

Craig M nah he’d be dead if it wasn’t for his grandma

[@strengthandmasculinity]

@@user-nj1zu2nf1x nah she made him a legend.

[@PauloStaCruzVlogs]

Cowboy is the man! I met him in an open workout here in the philippines and he was super awesome and gave us advice he actually made extra time for not just the media but all the fans waiting for his autograph he’s pretty awesome 👍

[@jodydolphin79]

We had the same thing happen when cowboy was in Seattle

[@PedalTheGlobe]

I'm no fighter but I would love to hang out at the ranch for a week and drink some beers with Cerrone.

[@jonruger]

Cowboy has been my favorite fighter since the first time I saw him he is the best personality in the sport.

[@moosedrummer1]

Jon Ruger me too

[@lewisflores5370]

When you fly your grandma to Canada.... Cuz you want here there..... Unconditional love....true love

[@28anchor]

One of if not my favorite fighters. He lives the life by his own rules. Respectful, Brutally honest, great fighter, even greatest fighter.

[@PowerScissor]

This is what you would see from the UFC if they actually promoted their fighters.

[@codyrinehart4678]

PowerScissor they being the UFC provides the platform. Does a musician expect the theatre to give him a stage and also provide the guitar?

[@jackbenson8228]

you dick

[@thepistolguy859]

But they are making enough money that they don't care too.

[@user-nj1zu2nf1x]

They don't give a shit about the labor side of their business lol. And would they almost all these guys are retarded short of Conor. Signing 8 fights deals and shit, like wut tf r u doin

[@Hugh_Morris]

That explains why he's susceptible to body shots. I never knew about the accident. What a video, Cerrone is just living life

[@rosesforthenoddinggo]

George Havenhand what he could have been ..... scary

[@fisher9276]

Cowboy is what happens when John Wayne, Chuck Norris AND Evil Kenevil had a kid

[@truecrimejungle]

he's actually what happens when you are a trustfund baby and have adhd.

[@haydenbelcher6328]

Is nobody going to talk about how he built that whole house stable thing?? Amazing!!

[@victorleather6983]

Legendary...." who your around is what you become""..Grandma Cerrone has the right outlook on life .. Amazing .

[@brendangray]

cowboy=a way of life

[@paachpaach774]

Total badass in every sense of the word

[@wjellis504]

Ain't that the truth!!

[@Alchemistic88]

The only fighter in MMA that had me actually go out of my way to order in a t-shirt of his from Texas (I'm in the UK), just to rock a Cowboy Cerrone Muay Thai shirt. I don't have any other merch from any other fighter. Onnit please give us some Cowboy Cerrone stuff, I will eat that shit up!

[@iheelhookday1whitebelts22]

John Corbett wat

[@iheelhookday1whitebelts22]

John Corbett where is the story guy he just said he was a cowboy fan and bought his shirt what is ur deal guy

[@fooddroppers3586]

Alchemistic Academician same, I have cowboy merch and that’s it

[@basedluffy2314]

This was tight guys! Good job on this for real! We need more......

[@krush4you180]

This guy. has a great values to life... if you dont enjoy it while its happening it goes by so fast that by the time you slow down you start thinking what really happened cause it seems like a blur. . i know cause its happened to me ... Glad gis granny has raised him right with right morals in life. (by the way this video was great! keep em coming! )

[@joseph4043]

The vibes this video gives off.... I love it! Very down to earth surreal cowboy is a legend I’d love to meet him

[@aidanmandude]

This man is my hero, I'm a multisport athlete, and you keep me motivated. Thanks Cowboy! Never stop being you!!!

[@CDSINET]

Cowboy you are brilliant. This is perfect. If this is your idea you are ahead of the curve. If not, count the person responsible for this video as your best friend. This kind of production will make you a star beyond UFC.

[@GeorgiasFinestGolfGoose]

Have loved cowboy since watching him in one of his earliest fights ever when the tapout show featured him

[@jacobramuck]

grandma is the fucking best!

[@andrewmorris9574]

Ive been waiting for a feature on Cowboy like this one. Such a great video!

[@simonpc123]

[@thxforurview]

Dope edits and perspective!!! Keep this comin

[@svddude23]

How can you not love this bmf. great short film!

[@vanshipman]

Cowboy is just the man, you gotta love him and his Grandma is just the best, that boy is BLESSED to have her in his life. It’s great to see what a difference she made in his life and she is obviously so proud of him. Great video👍👊

[@autu2176]

That song ''Hawkmoth' from The Deer, perfect!!! Long live Cowboy and his Grandma. Great job guys, couldn't be better. Congrats.

[@darknessfadestolight4312]

Now that my friends is how a epic short documentary is made. Dudes you hit it right out of the park. The type of presence you created. The black and white hurricane. Old pics , the black in white snippets. Fuckin killed it ! Beautiful work man.

[@squirtlesquadblastoise7166]

I'll comment random shit just to support this video. Quality mma related content on KZbin is rare. Keep this shit up. You guys got a new sub from me.

[@joseph4043]

One of my favorite documentaries of all time the vibe is sooo Cowboy and I really liked the music

[@frdrmz4504]

Awesome vid!! I hope they are taking more footage of cowboys life. This guy is a beauty.

[@33ANTREAS]

That was a hell of a film.

[@darknessfadestolight4312]

Your creating that full on raw in the moment type of vibe. Keep that up . Blood and guts feel

[@jbvap]

What a great short film you guys put together. Love some cowboy cerrone

[@riverach84]

yo real talk this is perfect thank you for this

[@phillipadams6735]

Dude, im living such a similar story (except haven't made it that far). This really got me, dude. I agree with him. Live your life while you can. I need to get back off my ass. Always been/will-be a Cerrone fan. Since WEC. Give em hell cowboy.

[@vickjoe6851]

This is a really well put together in depth video good job

[@5ofNov]

Cool dude indeed. I hope he never looses that genuine attitude/personality.

[@_jonathanjulian]

whoever did the transitions for this video did a good job! The transitions help tell the story very well.

[@SeekanDestroy03]

Fuckin love this guy, he's living the Dream

[@david17500]

Probably will always be my favorite fighter! This is a good representation of why. Still remember watching him fight Jamie Varner for the title live when he was 9-0

[@codypatrula13]

Awesome film long time fan of you cowboy!! All the best to you and your family!! 👊🏼💪🏼💯

[@bigdg85]

By far my favorite fighter. Hope I get to see him fight one day. Weird to look up to a guy only a few years older than me but he is wise beyond his years

[@javidoza2242]

Awesome story guys, Keep up the good work.. Donald is a Beast

[@mcashy3675]

[@lawnfarmr399]

Can't wait for him to fight McGregor. Love them both, but hope Cowboy wins by head kick KO or triangle. Dude deserves the respect and fame it would give him.

[@timothynarain3457]

Lawn Farmr lol

[@danablaze8548]

[@stlrs7541]

At 12:10 my fukn iPhone cut to Siri and she gave me the weather report Other than that great work! Legit BMF and livin life on his terms Gotta respect that

[@Sonicpbs1]

I hope Donald Cerrone gets The victory over McGregor. He’s a man that deserves to keep living the way he’s living. He never gave into all the hype of overly disrespectful trash talking. He just fights as hard as he can that’s all it takes for Corrine.

[@manifestdreams9689]

Good shit!

[@TheScorpp]

amazing character

[@dollsbocy3118]

a true legend a real hero all love and respect #cowboycerrone

One of the most American videos I've seen!

[@P.L.D.]

OMG, such a great story.

[@colinmalan7107]

a true original, no one like him and i doubt one will be like him in the future

[@anonymoustruth8573]

What a man!.

[@EIRE1980]

Cowboy is a man's man, he gives us Irish blokes some shit but he is a good guy in my book. He is a exciting fighter I've been watching for a long time since WEC. He's got something like 45 fights. Like to see him capture a belt.

[@baghaei90]

This dude is a fucking legend. The coolest fighter the world has seen.

[@patohardoy6224]

Love this guy

[@offroad5798]

Definitely my favorite fighter

[@hellhound5602]

amazing!

[@justinking3984]

Cowboy is one inspirational BMF 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@kleinwong_]

Whoa. What an ending.

[@SmokinJim-3D]

Cowboy is legend. I’m surprised Reebok can even make shorts to fit balls that big

[@mgpocho]

MORE!

[@kaioduda387]

Isso sim é um lutador de verdade ,suas lutas são muito empolgantes

[@bangarang1og244]

Can't go wrong with Cowboy or Onnit!

[@BobSnapple]

What an absolute stud.
