Phil Baroni: A new Ambassador for the sport?
It was an ironic turn of events this past weekend over in the UK. It turned out that Phil “the New York bad ass” Baroni wasn’t such a bad ass after all. In fact, Baroni showed that he was the complete opposite.
Actually, it was pretty bad ass the way he put Scott Jansen to sleep with a right hook in the first round of last Saturday night’s Cage Rage. But Baroni acted like a true professional following the fight and continued to play the part of a gentleman even in the wake of his post-fight attack.
Yesterday, Jansen released a statement in which he publicly apologized for the way his associate attacked Baroni in the moments following the fight. Jansen went on to call Baroni a true ambassador for the sport. Not too shabby for a bad ass! Fightline.com has Jansen’s full statement in which he apologizes for the incident.
