The Baroni spin is in full force. Credit for heart - he kept coming when most guys would of folded - have respect for him, he's in there fighting and putting it on the line - blah, blah, blah.
Hey - i don't respect Baroni because he doesn't show respect for anyone. He runs his mouth in such a mean, nasty way. You all were saying how he was going to knock Frank TFO. Now after he takes a beating you guys are spinning this crap. Yes Baroni is a tough guy, I certainly wouldn't want him coming after me. But as a professional fighter he's lousy with a lousy record. He talks so much smack but can't produce. I wish he would shut the hell up and leave the scene. He's a clown. Not because of his fighting but because of his mouth. If he didn't talk all his crap and was respectful. If he just worked hard and gave the effort without all his other crap then he would get my respect. But he is a true AHOLE and cannot help himself. I enjoy watching him get beat down.
Man that was awesome. I just can't get tired of watching that. Frank had that equivalent of pointing his bat to were he would hit the ball out of the stadium. He says to Phil, "I'm putting you to sleep", makes the hand sleeping jesture,,,,and two seconds later delivers the on/two and knocks Phil into next week. Call it cocky but that what I call saying it and delivering it! Fucking awesome.
"You learn more from a loss then you do from a win."
Then how come Baroni keeps acting so stupid?
I give him credit for fighting hard, but fighting "like a man" doesn't just entail going out and eating a bunch of punches. It entails being brutally honest with yourself and addressing your weaknesses, and working like hell to develop them into strengths. Fight after fight, Baroni shows little improvement, and actually seems to be regressing. His head was on a post, and he looked really bad against a guy who looked really bad against Renzo.
In the end, this is what happened: Baroni talked alot of shit, did his hair in the mirror right before the fight, lost the mental game, and then lost the physical game. Which is what will probably happen next time, and the time after that. Yes, he has balls, but to be a man requires brains as well.
surely didn't seem like the baroni i'm used to seeing in that fight... if he had come out and gone apeshit with his punches (ala vitor vs. wanderlei) he might have had better luck... there was no barrage of punches....
