Donald Cerrone says he’s expecting his fight with former UFC welterweight champion Robbie Lawler to be an epic showdown.

Lawler, however, said he can’t get excited for a fight ahead of time. “Ruthless” says he can’t get pumped until he’s knocked out his opponent.

Lawler vs. Cerrone is a featured bout on the UFC 214 pay-per-view card taking place on July 29.
