Don't think so. He's who people perceive him as - a bridesmaid, never a bride.
 
His career is rated as it should be. Mid to upper tier fighter who is willing to fight as much as possible, and generally puts on a show.

Dude consistently gets in top 5, and can HANG with top 5, but FOLDS in title matches unfortunately.

He's rated just about on point.
 
Cerrone is the Ryan Bader of the lightweight division. Highly ranked but would get destroyed by most in the top five.
 
True. One of the best lightweights of all time that never became champ.
 
People like to give him shit and call him mediocre but he has beaten some monsters at 155. I guess people will only remember your losses.
A lot of them are Conor bandwagoners who are simply trying to insult RDA's accomplishments to either....

1.) Make themselves truly believe Conor will beat RDA.

or

2.) They're just repeating what their master says about him.

Most people respect Cerrone as a true warrior and a game rooster for anyone. RDA blowing through him is more of a testament to RDA, not a knock on Cowboy.
 
Not a champ but he dominated the two guys rda lost to. Evan dunham did beat rda imo

True. I like Cerrone as a fighter, he's just come up a little short when he's sniffed the belt. Kind of like Gus and Condit in that respect.
 
Great fighter, exciting, won't be champ ever IMO. I don't think he's underrated though.
 
He has great talent, but he always busts when fights are big. Maybe the pressure gets to him? I don't know. But I feel like it's fairly accurate. As everyone else is saying.

Would love to see him and McGesus fight in the future.
 
Cerrone is a great fighter and a true character - tip that hat!
