Cool 9 Poor

According to the report from Josh Gross of SI.com, Josh "The Baby Faced Assassin" Barnett (24-5 MMA) will make his return to Mixed Martial Arts at Dream.13 fight card, that will take place on March 22nd in Yokohama. Barnett's opponent will be no other than a veteran K-1 fighter "Mighty Mo" (real name: Siala-Mou Siligia), who is currently 3-1 in his MMA campaign.

The fight will cap Barnett's first return to the Mixed Martial Arts arena, eight months since testing positive for steroids just a week prior to the fight against Fedor Emelianenko at Affliction: Trilogy. Before the "Affliction Scandal" Barnett was ranked as #2 Heavyweight in the World, as an impressive victory against Mighty Mo could be a fresh start for the legendary Pride fighter.

Dream 13 event will be headlined by the entertaining Featherweight Title fight between the reigning Champion Bibiano Fernandes and the relentless veteran Joachim "Hellboy" Hansen.

YoMama Dude... is ARod still playing baseball... is Bonds still the homerun king... did Arnold still win a crap load of Mr. O's? Hell yes... and where do they compete??? The good old USA! I love my country but there is still a shit load of cheats here too.

IMO they all need to be kicked out of their sports and all their records erased. How does cheating make you feel good about your wins? A bunch of f****** babies that would never be anything without roids or some other illegal substance. Reply 2 years ago

MAMBA24ILL He really has cheated himself in more ways than one by using roids. 1st he blew his chance to fight Fedor & made Affliction fold. 2, just look at him & then look at Overeem's physic. He ain't doing it right.... Reply 2 years ago

Krogan Your final point is something that has always confounded me with Barnett, usually you can easily tell if someone has or is using roids, for example Overeem or Lesnar but Barnett shows no physical signs of roid use. Reply 2 years ago

lionkill most people who compete in sports who take roids don't do it for weight training/ bodybuilding they use it to speed up the healing process so that they can generally train harder. barnett is known more for doing wrestling/fighting specific exercises like using a macebell, bodyweight drills, etc... with or without roids that type of exercise routine is never going to make you look like bodybuilder.
