“A lot of people think I’m done,” Baroni says. “I ain’t going out like this, dude. I ain’t going out breaking my ankle, getting carried out of the ring. The whole argument while I was on the ground, however long I was left in the ring, was because they brought out a stretcher. Motherf–kers, stand me up and carry me the f–k out. I ain’t going out of the ring on a f–king stretcher. They’re like, ‘But your ankle.’ They wouldn’t f–king do it. That’s what took so long to get me out of the ring, because I was arguing with them. The last time I’m going out of a ring isn’t going to be on no f–king stretcher. There’s no f–king way. I’m not going out like that. I gave my life to this sport. I made a lot of sacrifices. I beat up my body and punished myself, but the last time I leave the cage is not going to be on a f–king stretcher with my foot twisted off. I had to walk out under my own power.”
