BAR BRAWL: Burkman vs. Phil Baroni | Jonathan Brown

Quote:

Josh Burkman and Phil Baroni both have big fights coming, but that didn’t stop them from engaging in an all out brawl at Sutra nightclub in Huntington Beach California this last weekend. It seems Team Punishment friendly meet and greet with the fans got a little unfriendly at the after hours celebration. In this fightbeat Exclusive Josh Burkman gives us his side of things of what went down.
FB: I heard you had an altercation with Phil Baroni, What Happened?

JB: Well Team Punishment got together to do a meet and greet with the fans. Everybody was there Kendal, Tito everyone from Team Punishment and Phil Baroni was there too. And I mean from what I hear Phil Baroni is a real hot head. So were all just doing our thing that day. So later were at the club. Tito got a couple of tables at Sutra. You know and I wasn’t partying I was just kind of hanging out screwing around and there was like twenty-five people packed into a small little area, and were all dancing and I got bumped a little bit, and Baroni was next to me with his girlfriend and she was standing there with her hands around Phil. Nobodies trying to pick up on her or anything and I bumped into her, and my hand might have smacked her hip, or her thigh or something I don’t know? The next thing I know Phil’s tapping me on my shoulder and he’s like did you touch my girlfriend’s ass?(In Josh’s best Phil Baroni accent) And I was like no I didn’t touch your girlfriend’s ass come on? And then I look away and my brother is like what did he say? So then Phil taps me again? And he’s like are you sure you didn’t touch my girlfriend’s ass? And I was like dude I got more respect then that, I didn’t touch your girl’s ass. And then he grabs my shoulder again. And I’m like dude don’t ****ing touch me again. So we start to get into it back and fourth, and he starts to run his mouth a little bit, and now I’m getting pissed off, and I start making fun of him saying how he such a bad ass and what not. Basically I wasn’t trying to calm the situation down lets just say that.

So Tito grabs me and he’s like hey bro what’s the deal? And he was like just apologize he such a ****ing hothead. And I was like I’m not going to apologize dude I didn’t do anything. He’s like dude just don’t get into a fight! And I’m like no worries I won’t get into a fight.

So I go over to Phil and am like no worries bro I got no problem with you lets just drop it. And Baroni’s like **** you I never like you anyways, so he goes to smack me in the head right over Ken Pavia. (Phil’s manager) So right when he goes to smack me I hit him with a right hand and at the same time my brother hits him, and you know where at the club my brother has got my back always. So my brother hits him with like three right hands and puts his head down. Soon as he puts his head down Tito grabs my brother, and I was still there and I hit him with a couple of shots, and you know his head is still down, so I Thai clinched him and hit him with about three knees. Then somebody grabbed Phil and somebody grabbed me. And I was standing there with my brother and I was like you alright bro? And we were laughing. Tito comes up and is like what the **** man? I told you not to get into a fight! And I was like dude I was just standing there and he slapped me what did you want me to do? Next thing you know whoever was holding Phil down on the coach let him go. And he jumped up from behind me and nailed me with a left hook. Totally blind sided me.

FB: Where did he hit you?

JB: Right in the chin dude. Right below the ear he hit me hard. I mean I felt the hit, but we have been training for weeks, so I was good you know? So then I turn around and my brother is already blasting him, so then Tito again grabs my brother. So then I start hitting him and they let me and Baroni go at it for like 45 seconds, and I had his head down on the couch and I was hitting him in the face and I got him good a bunch of times, so then I go to look for my brother and Tito has got him in a rear naked choke hold. So I’m like Tito let him go dude that’s my brother. So he lets him go and he’s out cold.

So my brother is laying on the couch and I’m trying to wake him up, and then I felt something and I look down and Phil is trying to lock on an ankle lock on my brother, and not like a straight ankle lock, he’s got a heal hook in and he’s trying to break my brother’s ankle, so I reached down and hit Phil a couple of time to get him off. And my brother’s ankle was all swollen the next day because he had a good little lock on him. I mean how hard is it to put an ankle lock on someone who is passed out.

So the next thing the security guard is grabbing me and is like lets go, and I’m like I’m cool man I’m not trying to do anything I just got cheap shoted and that’s all there is too it. So we go outside and Phil and Ken come walking out and Phil’s like you ****ing pussies you know in his little accent and my brother is making fun of him, so the dude is just a hot head whacked out of his mind. So Ken Pavia comes over and is like be the bigger man you got a fight with Karo coming up, and I didn’t want to deal with it later, so I was like let me go over there and just apologize to him and bury this, and Ken was like just you not your friends, so I walk over there and I’m like Phil lets bury this I got no issues with you. So I go to shake his hand, and he acts like he’s going to shake my hand, and then throws a big ass left hook at me. He missed because he wound up so far he was trying to kill me. I was like bro you’re a coward, and then security came out and broke it up again and that was pretty much it.

FB: Were you injured in the fight?

JB: O no we have been over here training; you know the guys are all worried about my jaw. I mean he got me but I’m good.

FB: What did he look like afterwards?

JB: He’s going around saying nothing happened, but I bet you money nobody see’s him for a week. His manager Ken Pavia called me and was like the UFC will really look down upon this and let’s just try to keep everything quiet. And I said bro I already talked to Dana and there not going to look down on me cause I got cheap shoted and defended myself. Just because your guy is an idiot doesn’t mean I’m not going to tell my side of the story. You know we just beat him up for being an idiot. It was quite the little may lay. I’m just glad nobody got hurt hopefully were all good for our fights.

I'm not sure if Burkman is telling 100% truth but it's one crazy story.

No. It was Horn's friend's woman. And Burkman resolved the issue with the couple before the fight ever happened. Horn was the one who couldn't drop it. And from what Burkman says, he talked to the guy later, he and the girl had broken up, and he said Burkman's comment was dead on. She has too big a mouth. But that is from Burkman, who i'd say likes to embellish slightly.
