‘Broken’ Donald Cerrone congratulates Darren Till on social media (Photo)

UFC bonus machine Donald Cerrone suffered yet another tough defeat last night inside of the Octagon. ‘Cowboy’ ran into a man who appears to have all the makings of a future superstar in Liverpool’s Darren Till  in the main event of UFC Fight Night 118 in Gdansk, Poland, where he’d suffer a broken nose courtesy of the rangy welterweight’s pin-point accurate striking.

 

One hell of a job @darrentill2 safe to say you broke the fuck out my nose !!! I don’t make excuses nor will I ever. You had a great game plan and executed it perfectly. I did not over look nor take you lightly. So again congratulations.

As evidenced by the Instagram post above, Cerrone was pure class in defeat.

Till returned the favor with the following post on his Instagram account:

Cerrone leaves Poland on a three fight losing skid, the first of his Hall of Fame career. For Till, it’s onward and upward; you can expect to see him ranked in the top 15 at welterweight for the first time in his career considering that the previously unraked fighter just knocked off the #6 ranked Cerrone in the first round of their contest. While #15 ranked Mike Perry did take to the cage to call out Till in what appeared to be a pre-planned ordeal, ‘Platinum’ will have his hands full in Winnipeg on December 16th when he takes on Santiago Ponzinibbio.
