Yeah. Why would people pay for it? Cowboy looked so awful.
I like how neither really tries to actually slap the other and Cerrone just does little love taps on craig

That's the kindest combat JJ match I have ever seen.
Nice match, felt like Craig was testing himself, trying new things and also letting Cowboy work. Overall, both very respectful and it seemed like a good learning experience for both

It basically is an exhibition match. Why else would an MMA fighter fight one of the best BJJ fighters in the world?
A good natured encounter, some wonderful sweeps by Craig.
Cerrone slapping craig all the time is quite funny
Donald Cerrone has practicing Jiu-Jitsu for well over a decade. People really underestimate how much time mixed martial artists put into a variety of disciplines, but alot of these guys have dedicated years of their lives to developing their ground game. Plus they are wrestling college and even olympic wrestlers.

You can tell the guys like each other, and they did not want to smack each other
Straight Class, Craig being the instructor that he is, was never feeling any danger in the grappling. I don't even think he made threw one palm strike.
This seems so much better than watching guys like shogun and tony past their primes just getting shelled at the end of their careers.
Great rolling thanks for the vid!

Great match. Respect to both fighters.
absolutely incredible match to watch! that level of kindness is really astonishing!! Cowbow all day every day!! we need more matches like this, sometimes MMA is just too vicious..
These guys are just having fun. good to see. flowy.
2 great guys and legends in their own sport.
Awesome that RFK was commentating!
This looked like nothing more than a light work out? It honestly looked like Craig could have finished it at any time he wanted. Still fun to watch.
Craig just playing around haha
Haha, love Cerrone flashing the knee at 2:03. Even got a smile out of Beltran.
Massive respect between both men
Cowboy instinctively about throws a knee in the clinch and stops himself. Love that dude. Just out there having a blast and competing.
Two of the most humble practitioners of the sport
Pretty easy win for Craig!
Love both those guys. They had fun , made it a better match.
cowboys ground game was always beautiful to watch.. shame he didnt use it more
Craig was never in ANY danger and could’ve finished that way sooner. yawn
CJ was just having fun. He's so good at grappling.
Crazy level difference, Craig is just playing with him.
RFK did a great job announcing 👏
This dude is a beast!
I really like how fighters can have sponsors on their suits
Craig really was playing that fight. Insane how good he is
Ooooh, this was a fun one!
Craig Jones is such an elite Grappler. I'm a huge fan
Both great dudes.

I was skeptical first but after watch the match this shit is so good gj cerrone

Clear respect between them both.

Underated comment!
Craig was definitely going easy on Cerrone. He was in their with a ufc legend. He wanted to enjoy his time.
Cowboy hopping away from Greg was hilarious. Greg, Greg Jones.
This announcer's voice is KILLING me.
Would love to see a BJJ guy do a gauntlet vs UFC fighters and try to sub all of them. That'd really show the skill difference between fighters and bjj guys
Since slaps to the head are allowed, thoughts on slaps to the body as well? Still no palm strikes obviously, and maybe start with no slaps under the belt unless fighters wear cups (assuming they don't already)
The announcer is an advertisement for anti-cigarettes. His voice sounds like his dad was asphalt and his moms an ashtray.
Cerrone, my all time favourite human and fighter.
Seems like a fighter in trouble will use the tapping/strikes to start the tap when the opponent starts to release the sub they will say it was not a tap.
Nice of them to have the Marlboro man as a guest commentator
Love Cowboy forever. Legend.
Beautiful jitsu real classy 😵💫🥶😤🤗😎👊🥷👐🐝
That buggy was disrespectful
The real winner is the frog that stayed in the announcer's throat the whole time.
So can somebody explain what's this? Is this a part of the UFC? Does it have constant cards like UFC's on saturday or not?

They keep cutting the camera angle on the key moves so you can't see the positions. So frustrating.
I didn’t know Dana hired RFK to be an announcer, thats awesome
Buggy from full mount looks crazy. Seems actually useful in mma. They won’t really be able to strike you. They will try for a slam. Gives you time to let go and get a scramble. These guys got paid to have fun. Craig taking it easy on bjj and cowboy taking it easy on striking. This looks like a ufc open workout.
Fun match
2:05 seconds in i already seen cowboy pull back a knee in the clinch xD this should be fire

The vocal fry on this poor bloke is unreal😂
Would like to see what it looked like if Donald chose to throw serious strikes in the ground exchanges. But at the same time Craig looked like he was cruising.
