UFC Legend Donald Cerrone to Be Inducted into 2023 Hall of Fame Class

Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone is the latest UFC legend to be inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame class of 2023, according to an announcement on Saturday's UFC Fight Night broadcast. He'll join a class that already includes titans of the sport such as Anderson Silva, José Aldo and Jens Pulver.

Cerrone, 39, began his MMA career in 2005 and went on to become one of the sport's most beloved figures as he gained a reputation for his willingness to not shy away from any opponent and his endurance.

"Cowboy Cerrone is one of the best lightweights in UFC history," UFC President Dana White said in a statement.
