Dana White is teasing McGregor versus Cerrone on Jan 8 in Vegas. Cerrone is a journeyman who never hesitates when Dana crooks his finger, so it wouldn't be unlike Dana to toss him the occasional dog yummy, but I don't understand this pairing. McGregor is the most famous/infamous/notorious/self-destructive [pick one] fighter in the UFC. But Cerrone's out-of-ring persona is as exciting as a loaf of stale bread. And his record in the past three years is 5-6, not even .500. And he's on a 2-fight losing streak. And he's 36 so his oh-fer in his last two fights might be a hint that he's past his "best by" date. Plus both of those losses were TKOs, so he'll get into the ring in January having had his bell rung twice in the past eight months.
Think maybe this is DW offering a big gate payday to Cerrone as a retirement present?
