This is what I feel at this point in my career I need to do. Im feel Im a better fighter than Ive shown in the ring esp as of late.
As far as the move to Welter Weight goes I feel great. Im more athletic. Im in much better condition, my hand speed is back, an I would go as far as to say Im alot quicker than I was at my previous best.
I feel just as strong physicaly if not stronger do to much greater flexability.
Im not going to make any predictions or promises. Ive been very humbled as of late. Ive been handed a real wake up call.
Im going to give it my all 100% and do my best. Its Do or Die for me. Im All In! I love to fight. Im a real fighter, an like I said the day I dont think I can be a World Champion is the day Ill retire.
Im not done yet, I have alot of fight left inside me. I have alot to prove to myself an alot of people to prove wrong.
NEVER SAY DIE !!!

You seem to say the same things before every fight.
"I've never felt better'
"Im stronger then eva"
Ill believe it when I see it.

Try fighting instead of just talking.
Baroni gets my respect just for getting in the ring and putting it on the line.
And for being one of oh so few fighters who actually take a little time share their experiences with us at Sherdog.

it's called gamesmanship and it has always been part of the fight game. Hype puts asses in seats.
