Amir Sadolla and Forrst Griffin have a lot in common by the way they fight! Always pushing the paise always all over ur their opponents. Top 2 most entertaining fighters to watch for sure!

I think Amir did very good! Baroni is a veteran. I think Baroni took Amir lightly and tried to plow though Amir. Amir took some pretty big shots in the beginning. I think Baroni gassed out after the first round. Then Amir did a good job and stuck to the plan. The reason Amir probably wasn't able to KO Baroni is because in the third round they were both tired, not to mention you pretty much need a bat to KO Baroni.

Other fighters finished Baroni but why can't Amir? Reason = he sucks. If he tried to pick phil apart, then why the hell did he always go for the clinch? Sure Baroni is a tough dude but in the 3rd round he was a punching bag. Lots of openings, hands down, crippled leg, free shots... and still went to decision. very disappointing. Only credit i can give him is he took some big punches in the first round and stood still.

Good job Amir.I,like some of you,always like Amir for his personnality,humour and humbelness.He reminds me of Forrest! Now,from a fight stand point,you guys can't be serious when you said Amir sucked!He did everything possible to finish this fight!.You have to gives some credits to Baroni for being so tough!!
Amir(in the third round,to finish the fight)should've put Baroni on the ground and finish him with a submission;since his pretty good at that!! Easier said than done!Especially from my cough,half drunk!!

Agreed. Solid fight from Amir. Beroni is always dangerous so why would Amir risk getting caught by a loose haymaker? Just pick him apart.
More importantly, terrible haircut from Amir. Sketch mullet thing

You're absolutely stupid if you think Amir sucked this fight. Phil Baroni is one of the hardest dudes to finish , especially when he fights at 170. Riggs couldn't finish him in Strikeforce and he's only been knocked out 3 times. Amir picked him apart with his gameplan, keep distance and set up your kickboxing. When he tries to engage set up strikes, close , and clinch. One of the funnest Muay Thai performances to watch.
First win in the UFC after getting screwed over in his last fight and it was one of the toughest Welterweights in MMA. I hope Amir does some big things in this wrestling filled division.

Sorry guys but i think Amir sucked. Phil was so fatigued at the 3rd round he was like a punching bag, and Amir got like 5 minutes and still can't finish it. Pretty crappy. On the other hand, lots of heart for the New York Bad ASS. Always love him. He's always so jacked up and his entrance is so lol. I still remember him fighting MAtt Lindland with those crazy body shots in the end. He sucks but i hope he doesn;t get kicked out of UFC so fast..

You can just tell how one-dimensional Phil Baroni is. He didn't switch stances to relieve pressure on his leg. He didn't throw a leg kick, he didn't even check one single leg kick either. He just swung wildly, not thinking past the first few seconds of the first round.
Impressive win by Amir Sadallah. He looked very good on his feet.

Good job Amir!! I always liked Amir's personality and humor. He's such a charasmatic dude, good to see him do well against a tough cat like Baroni.

Man, I always loved Amir, ever since the TUF. Baroni has heart though. Sadallah looked Fantastic... He's only going to get better. COngrats to both guys. Also check out my blog;
