Some fight fans have become concerned that UFC welterweight Donald Cerrone may not like or agree with people that identify as transgender.
The talented mixed martial artist once appeared on former UFC competitor Brendan Schaub’s podcast The Fighter and The Kid to discuss U.S. President Donald Trump’s attempted ban on transgender troops in the military. During the conversation, “Cowboy” seemingly became upset with Schaub, as the former fighter was referring to a man who got a sex change as “she.”
“Cowboy” then offered his opinion on the matter.
“If I’m sexin’ an animal and it’s got a dick, it’s a male,” Cerrone said.
“If aliens came down and they were like, ‘males over there and females over there.’ Yeah, it might look like a girl, but it has a ding dong so we are going to put it over there with the males.
“I’m just saying, if you got a dick, you’re a dude.”
Donald Cerrone is now set to face off against Yancy Medeiros at UFC Fight Night 126. The event will go down Feb. 18 inside the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas.
