Phil baroni vs Matt lindland

[D-RAIL]

Anyone else impressed with baroni in this fight? I assumed lindland would destroy him but baroni held his own pretty well considering lindland's silver medal Olympic wrestling credentials.

I was more impressed by the Mir upset of Tank Abbot on that card

I prefered cm punk using his eggplant to salute other pigeons.

I can only assume TS has been in a coma for the last 14 yrs and this was the first thing he thought of when he woke up.

I know dude. I woke up and logged onto AOL and saw that he lost, and also noticed that I had traveled back in time.

I'm sure someone will post a homoerotic pic of Baroni, no matter what anyone thinks.

Come on bro, spoiler alert.

First fight was a good close fight. Second fight is where people got the idea that Lindland was a "OMGZ LNP IT WRESTLERRRR!!!!".

 

[sabretitan]

It was almost his best Eva performance

 

[Goodfella86]

It was a great performance. He gave Lindland a hard time in the first fight. Baroni did look like an absolute beast in his first few fights in the UFC.

Is there such a thing as a non homoerotic pic of Baroni?

I'm going to catch shit for this, but Baroni had handspeed and power that rivaled the quality of a prime vitor Belfort. Phil's biggest issue was ground game, utilizing a purely defensive guard and also his conditioning. Had he been more offensive off his back and made improvements his stamina, those controversial losses to Lindland and tanner might have ended in his favor.

I don't see anything homoerotic about this one

 

[DarkneT]

I always wondered what sauce Baroni was on back then, it was obviously more aesthetic stuff than PED, maybe anavar?

This is what surprised me. I always viewed baroni as a brawler without any real ability. Watching him against lindland showed he actually had some talent. Their first fight was a very close decision.

He looekd the way he looekd because he was an actual bodybuilder before. A different PED is not the difference between a Barnett (even a kinda lean prime Barnett) and a Phil baroni. He looekd the way he does because of genetics and training

 

[D-RAIL]

Yeah he had won teen bodybuilding competitions.
