There was no bad blood between the two fighters after the UFC 246 main event in Las Vegas
It took only 40 seconds for Conor McGregor to beat Donald 'Cowboy' Cerrone on his first fight in the Octagon since defeat to Khabib Nurmagomedov in October 2018.
It was a fitting end to a fight week during which McGregor has behaved respectfully towards his opponent, a veteran of mixed martial arts who has fought in over 50 professional bouts. Despite the loss, Cerrone said that he has no plans to retire yet, while McGregor also outlined his plans for the future.
"So I'm going to party tonight, celebrate, spend time with my family and then get back in the gym and train.A fight with Jorge Masvidal - who enjoyed a sensational 2019 - is widely touted, while Welterwight Champion Kamaru Usman is another potential opponent.
