Fans Clamor for Baroni-Belfort Match

By: Sean Frank MMAagents.com

Talks on the Sherdog forum and mmasync.com suggest that the fans would love to see a fight between the "New York Badass" Phil Baroni and Vitor "The Phenom" Belfort. Belfort is currently scheduled to face Matt Lindland at 185 lbs on Affliction's upcoming PPV card. The NYBA is undefeated at his new weight class of 170 lbs. Although this would be an exciting fight with potential fireworks, I see Baroni sticking at 170 lbs. Who knows though? Maybe one day they can meet at a catch weight or maybe The Phenom will drop another weight class down to welterweight.
