Fight of the Day: Phil Baroni vs. Dave Menne
On the suggestion of reader "rheindog," here's Phil Baroni's 18-second destruction of Dave Menne at UFC 39 (9/27/02). Baroni's jackhammer-beatdown is memorable enough, but what makes this one classic is his Super-Guido celebration at the end: "I'm the best eva! I'm the man! I'm the man! I'm the man!" Unfortunately, he wasn't — Baroni's next four fights would result in losses at the hands of Matt Lindland, Evan Tanner (twice), and Pete Sell.

haha, thats awesome... the nyba's the man! baroni got ripped off on some decisions... and dropped that terrible sell fight b/c marc the gaymon laimon told him to go for the takedown and lay it out. but i'm biased b/c im a fan. Hes fighting hose hopefully he will be 'back'. In this video the post fight interviews he thanks some no carb pasta company and some other nonsense, it was pretty funny. War NYBA!
