Donald Cerrone takes on Adriano Martins at UFC on FOX 10
Cerrone (21-6 1NC) was previously planning to drop to 145-pounds, however for the moment it seems as if lightweight is where he will stay. He picked up “Submission of the Night” honors at UFC 167 for his triangle choke against Evan Dunham in his last outing.
Martins (25-6) made his UFC debut in November when he defeated Daron Cruickshank by kimura in the second round. The Brazilian is currently riding a six-fight winning streak, including a Strikeforce win over former UFC fighter Jorge Gurgel.
UFC on FOX 10 goes down on January 25 at the United Center in Chicago and will feature a lightweight battle between Benson Henderson and Josh Thomson in the main event.
