In a very impressive showing at UFC 137, Donald Cerrone made short work of Dennis Siver, hurting him badly with kicks and eventually choking him out on the ground.A high kick across the chin made Siver stagger around the Octagon early on in the fight, and although Siver managed to hold on for dear life and recover, Cerrone eventually knocked Siver down and got on top of him in back mount, forcing him to tap with a rear-naked choke.
UFC announcer Joe Rogan suggested to Cerrone after the fight that he's nearing title contention, but Cerrone said he's not thinking about that just yet.
"I'm just here to keep fighting. Hell, I want to get another fight in December, so if I could do that it'd be great," Cerrone said.
This fight took just two minutes, 22 seconds, and Cerrone took no damage at all, so Cerrone should be able to return to the Octagon quickly. He's now on a six-fight winning streak and 17-3 in his MMA career overall, and there's every reason to expect big things for him going forward.
As for Siver, it was a disappointing loss just as he appeared to be nearing title contention himself. Cerrone showed that he's on another level.
