Mike Perry calls Donald Cerrone ‘oblivious,’ plans to ‘kill’ him at UFC Denver

The trash talk between Donald Cerrone and Mike Perry has officially begun — on one side of the welterweight pairing, anyway.

Perry had some choice words for “Cowboy” in a series of tweets he published Thursday night. Perry, who recently joined Albuquerque’s Jackson-Wink MMA, responded to Cerrone’s criticism of the gym, at which he trained for years.

On Wednesday, Cerrone blasted head coach Mike Winkeljohn in an interview on Joe Rogan’s JRE MMA Show, saying he wasn’t loyal and just worried about money. Cerrone said he decided to train Perry, not Cerrone, for their upcoming fight, because “Platinum” paid more.
