‘Death punch did not work’ - Cerrone says Sanchez’s ‘cult leader’ got beat up in a bar; Fabia responds

Donald Cerrone was really motivated to settle the score with a former teammate in Diego Sanchez, until the bout was cancelled at the last minute. The former TUF winner in Sanchez was let go by the UFC, and the high profile incident involved his controversial manager and coach in Joshua Fabia.

Cerrone hasn’t been in good terms with Sanchez for a while now, but he didn’t seem to blame his former teammate for the cancellation. He did take shots at Fabia though.

“You’ve seen people get chopped, so apparently he pissed the wrong people off, and it just so happened right before the fight,” Cowboy said during the UFC Vegas 26 media day.
