Will he wait or won’t he? That is the question. UFC lightweight Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone has been on a tear and is now the number one contender and next in line for a shot at Rafael dos Anjos.<\/p>\n

The only problem with that is the champ is still out until December, healing from an injury, and Cerrone has already expressed his displeasure with having to wait, even Tweeting about it recently, implying that he would want another fight before than.<\/p>\n

His coach, Greg Jackson, plans on doing everything he needs to, to make sure he waits for that shot. Here’s what he told Inside MMA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we have to kidnap him, handcuff him to a chair, and tie him down until that title fight happens, then that\u2019s what we\u2019re going to have to do \u2013 if that\u2019s what it takes. \u2018Cowboy\u2019 is so close to me. He\u2019s like a brother. I love him to death. But we\u2019ve actually got to wait for the title shot.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be hard. It\u2019s probably going to be the biggest test of his career \u2013 it\u2019s not the actual fight, but the waiting for the actual fight. So hopefully he can make it through that test and get to the fight.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
