I remember being a kid and saying, 'One day, I'm going to have a ranch. One day, one day, one day.' And now, I'm fighting in the UFC. I'm here making the money, and that one day is here. I can finally go get those things that I want.

I took up scuba diving, and my next big thing is BASE jumping.

I signed a contract to fight at UFC 187, so I'm going to fight at UFC 187, whoever it is against. It's the same thing.

I'm a guy who likes to keep fighting five, six times a year, so if I ask for too much money, they might say, 'Well, we pay you too much. We can't let you keep jumping backwards and forwards and promote it.' The money I'm making is good to keep grabbing short-notice fights. I love them; they're my favorite ones.

I just love to be out on the lake, wakeboard, surfing, just playing, man.

For a while, I drank the juice - I did things the way everybody else said to. I listened to their advice. But it didn't work.

That Evan Dunham fight, I went back to not being serious. I was going to the lake and literally brought some wrestling mats down with me. We have a shop at the lake where we park the boat. I'd throw the mats in there, wakeboard all day, and train all night. I was having a good time, getting back to work.

I love fighting as much as I can and as often as possible.

I'll go to 185 pounds; who cares? Just give me fights.

Colorado's home for me.

I want all of the blue collar American working class people to know that I'm out there fighting for them.

-
There is nothing more I love more than being in a throw-down on a Saturday night.

-
People ask me, 'Why don't you take time off?' but the working class doesn't take time off. They're out there working every day. That's what I do, too. I want them to know there is hope, and I'm out there just like they are.

MMA makes you sore and tired every day. I wonder what we're going to be like when we're 50 or 60. I wake up some mornings and just say, 'Oh, God.' And then I go scuba diving.
Donald Cerrone
-
I own everything. I own my RV, my house, my trucks, my boat. Everything is paid for.
Donald Cerrone
-
I see the business side of it and moving up the ladder towards the title. That's where the money's at. That's the overall goal.
Donald Cerrone
-
It's hard to have money in the bank and want something and then not get it.

I could definitely make 145. But if 'Cowboy' is going to 145, I'm going after somebody who matters.

I thought I would be laying hardwood floors in Colorado - a construction worker. Middle class or working class, that's where I was! I just fought because I loved it. It was so fun! Being able to go in there and outthink your opponents.
Donald Cerrone
-
That's my style of fighting. I am throwing down, you know? Having fun. And that's my approach to life.
Donald Cerrone
-
I remember kickboxing and traveling the world when I was young. I would go to Japan or Africa, and I would go for the experience. As soon as I got off the plane, we'd go have a good time, party. Fighting was just the outlet of what I was doing there.
Donald Cerrone
-
They need to enforce how and who to give guns to. But there are Americans like me who are responsible, and they shouldn't take that away. If they outlaw guns, they won't take mine.
Donald Cerrone
-
When I fought Benson Henderson for the first time, or Jamie Varner, it was always like, 'Oh man... I'm in here fighting these guys. Do I really belong here?' That's all changed now.
Donald Cerrone
-
Aw man, I spend it pretty much as fast as I make it. If I want something, I don't wait around and plan or nothing. I just go out and get it.
