Donald Cerrone says being able to wear custom patch at UFC Ottawa ‘meant more to me than anything’

Blessed with a rebel spirit, Donald Cerrone again appeared to be defying protocol in his most recent fight.

As he went five rounds with Al Iaquinta in the main event of UFC Ottawa on Saturday, it became evident that “Cowboy” was wearing something on his shorts that was in violation of the UFC’s typically strict uniform policy. It turned out that Cerrone was actually wearing the same patch that led to him receiving a major fine from officials back in December 2015 when he wore customized gear for a championship fight with Rafael dos Anjos.
