UFC FN 83: Donald Cerrone Showcases Submission Skills, Taps Out “Cowboy”

Donald Cerrone

By FCF Staff

Donald Cerrone reminded fans at UFC Fight Night 83 that he’s more than just a dangerous striker, as the veteran fighter tapped out Alex Oliveira in highlight reel fashion.

Oliveira came out aggressively, and threatened Cerrone with heavy shots, but the latter countered with a nicely timed takedown. From there, Cerrone passed into fullmount, and set up a beautifully executed triangle-choke to score the victory.

After the bout, which took place at 170, Cerrone said he’s willing to take fights at both lightweight and welterweight moving forward.

Here are the results from UFC FN 83, which took place at Pittburgh’s Consol Energy Center.
