Media UFC 244 Free Fight: Jorge Masvidal vs. Donald Cerrone

Cowboy was tired, battle torn, coming off the Matt Brown fight from a month before.

Normally, Cowboy doesn't lose to guys like Masvidal.
 
Rough fight to watch as a Cerrone fan. Respect to him fighting so soon after the war with Matt Brown.
 
This is where we knew Masvidal is the best kick-catcher in MMA history.
It’s beautiful to watch he did it a lot in the Darren Till fight too. Catches a kick then uncorks two or three punches.
 
Wishy washy Dean stopped the fight end of rd 1 but then played it off like he didn't.

Cerrone didn't need to be sent out for rd 2.

Masvidal is the exact guys Cowboy losses to. Fighters who pressure, good boxing, & southpaws. Masvidal might no be a southpaw but he switches stances a lot and successful in switching stances mid combo. Cowboy just struggles with guys like that. He was getting tagged a few times by Hernandez in South Paw stance.
 

Dana didn't want to make this fight. He loves Cerrone but couldn't protect Donald from himself. Masvidal showed Cerrone he's at a different level. Love Cowboy from an entertainment standpoint but he's a notch below the top guys.
 
Cowboy has had a great career hope they throw him a top 15 next fight and he can go out with a W.
