Donald Cerrone put forth a great performance against young favorite Alex Hernandez at UFC Brooklyn and here’s how Twitter reacted.
Alex Hernandez talked a lot of mess to Donald Cerrone ahead of their UFC Brooklyn fight. It didn’t pay off. Instead, “Cowboy” fought his fight and made the young buck Hernandez pay for his words.
These are the Twitter reactions from the Cerrone-Hernandez fight:

Amazing Cowboy Cerrone stats:
"Cowboy" Cerrone breaks his own record for most wins (22) and finishes (16) in UFC history.
He also passes Wanderlei Silva for most wins in UFC/WEC/PRIDE/Strikeforce combined history with 28. An all-time great. #UFCBrooklyn

Will Cowboy finally get that big payday he deserves? Conor is game:
For a fight like that Donald, I’ll fight you.
Congratulations.— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) January 20, 2019
The moral of the story is don’t talk that trash to a man on a mission who can and will break you. Donald Cerrone is back and ready for the big boys, starting with Conor McGregor (who was mentioned by Cerrone by name in his post-fight interview). Hopefully!
