UFC fan favorite Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone shocked a lot of people last week when he posted a video of his gruesomely injured-looking eye<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“What’s going on everybody, this is Cowboy,”<\/em> Cerrone said in his social media post.<\/p>\n

“Before the media puts out what happened, just wanted to let you all know I’m still fighting in Toronto on December 10, yeah, I’m still fighting. Everything is good. After hours on the table, the doctors were able to save my eye. No issues there. So, couple weeks let it heal up and see you all in Toronto! Can’t catch a break on this fight.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Many believed that Cerrone had makeup on as the injury looked far too severe for him to be approved by any commission to fight in two weeks at UFC 206 against Matt Brown. Plus with it being known that Cerrone was filming a TV Western, many believed it was a makeup job.<\/p>\n

However, Cerrone has posted a few photos on Instagram since and also showed up to the media conference announcing the Mixed Martial Arts Athletes Association<\/a> with his eye still bandaged and looking injured.<\/p>\n
