UFC veteran Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone has already lost a lot of money in endorsement deals after the UFC struck an exclusive apparel and uniform deal with Reebok. Cerrone is losing out on even more money with Reebok blunders after his UFC title fight with Rafael dos Anjos, which took place on Dec. 19.
Cerrone wore a patch on his UFC Reebok uniform in his fight against dos Anjos in honor of his terminally ill grandmother, in which he received a fine for. Cowboy said in a tweet that the fine was hefty one after a fan questioned the fine price, and later went on to say that he’ll continue to take the fine and has absolutely no regrets honoring his loved one.
@Cowboycerrone how much did UFC dock you for wearing your traditional patch?

Let's just say a LOT. Think of a number then double it https://t.co/yBSGT4cfvc

@Cowboycerrone keep honoring your family! Not even a sponsor can take that pride away!
