He bashed, smashed and thrashed Hose. Stomps, soccer kicks and takedowns at will. It was sad to see him completely unprepared for the rest of the fight after those first 3 minutes....especially after fighting so recently against Frank Shamrock? A fight you would have expected him to have take seriously and been in great shape for? Not sure why Phil trains any technique at this point.....cleary his biggest challenge is cardio at fight pace. Hose was gassed as well and yes, it was a surprise that he was unable to take Baroni out much sooner. Not sure what Baroni can do to come back from this...it was a complete failure of preparation, dedication and commitment and many fans will no longer take him serious. His reputation as a guy who asks no quarter and takes no quarter is now no longer. He clearly was hyping for a paycheck and did not supply the fans their moneys worth as the previous Phil Baroni has done.

I think the website was iconsport.tv. It's thier homepage. I thought the fights last night were great. Icon's rules are similar to that of the old pride rules. Its in a ring and they allow kneeing and stomping downed opponents. If you haven't watched before check it out.[/quote] This was the first event to do so. Inside of the arena was set up totally different than how the would do it if it weren't gonna be shown to a larger audience via the internet. The event was good live, but wasn't great.

Gassing in the first round of a five rounder. And hose head wasnt much better. Baloni offered no offense and little defense and it still took hoser 4 more rounds to take him out. Terrible excuse for an mma fight (title fight no less). Wont be watching anything from icon in the future. Between this and the joke that was cage rage last week, dana must be pissing his pants with glee. If this is the best these outfits can do the ufc will continue to monopolize. And that is bad news for fighters and fans alike. The New York Fat Ass is a joke. Gassing in the first round of a five rounder. And hose head wasnt much better.
