Josh Barnet Suspened by the CSAC AGAIN!!!

Sigh..

What can I say...

I like Barnet, he brings a well rounded game and trains with a great team.... I don't know what to say other than I'm a little sad.

Anyway, now that there's no Fedor vs Barnet on the Horizon M-1/Affliction is grasping at straws for a replacement. Belfort is even being considered, Belfort, I mean I like Belfort, or at least old Belfort, but the one who's been showing up the past few years shouldn't be fighting Fedor. I like Belfort to much for that, Fedor needs a strong opponent, and Affliction needs to find that opponent or their show is going to take a big hit from the fans.

Sigh It's a good card too...

Anyway I'll still be watching because of Babalu, Gomi, Yvel, Mousasi, Buentello, and even Belfort

The show is separated into two live broadcasts on the same night—a one-hour special will air on HDNet starting at 7:30 PM/ET (4:30 PM/PT), followed by the sensational Pay-Per-View event, “Trilogy,” commencing at 9PM/ET (6 PM/PT).

Strikeforce® Light Heavyweight Champion Renato “Babalu” Sobral (32-8-0), VS Gegard “The Dreamcatcher” Mousasi (25-2-1), making his American debut in an intriguing co-main event.
