Barnett Tested Positive

**Deltasaurus** · 07-22-2009, 10:05 AM

In a random drug test Josh barnett who was gunna fight fedor was tested by the NSAC and he failed, i think Dana White had his buddys test him so to sabotage the event and his competition.

**MuscleScience** · 07-22-2009, 10:30 AM

Tested positive for what?

**Hunter** · 07-22-2009, 10:37 AM

This is big trouble for barnett who already tested positive after the couture fight. Hopefully its a mistake of sorts and he can still fight. I say this becouse I think Barnett will be the biggest test of Fedors career.

**J-Dogg** · 07-22-2009, 10:50 AM

Good, now Fedor has to go to the UFC to fight Brock.

No one left in Affliction to fight.

**southmadejd** · 07-22-2009, 11:28 AM

WTF?!?!?!?! This sucks so badly. I really wanted to see this fight but apparently Attencio confirmed it to Sherdog. Read this article:

http://sherdog.com/news/news/confirm...or-fight-18667

They say they might get Vitor Belfort or Bobby Lashley to maybe step in. Does this break anybody elses heart???

yes cause we all know he was dodging Brock

**Panzerfaust** · 07-22-2009, 01:41 PM

The CSAC are a bunch of crooked ****ing snakes, I take anything they do or say with a grain of salt. Miraculousy they are the ones that seem to "find" banned substances in most fighters while you don't hear as much abut the NSAC who test more people than any athletic commision.

**southmadejd** · 07-22-2009, 03:02 PM

But what reason would they have for not letting Barnett fight?? I mean this is the second time he has tested positive so eventually we have to start blaming Barnett for f-cking up this awesome fight......if Affliction had any chance of surviving as a fighting organization before.....now it is f-cking DEAD.

I am still crying.

I think this is the last fight they have under Fedor's contract?

They would be wasting that fight, if they put him against a LHW (Vitor) or a guy with 2 fights and no, notable wins (Lashley)

**WARMachine** · 07-22-2009, 03:46 PM

Yes this is the last fight on Fedor's contract.

And it is what it is. Its not Affliction's fault that Josh fvcked up. As some of you know im pretty involved in the MMA scene here in CA, ive heard its gonna be Vitor. 90/10. Hes about 200lbs right now. So he should be good to go. IDK if it will be for the WAMMA HW title however.

Poor Vitor...dude will break mentally at the slightest hint of adversity. Fedor is a ****ing wall of adversity for Vitor.

I'll watch it anyway though..

Poor Fedor, in a lose/lose situation now.

I LOLed when I read this. I do feel badly for Fedor. I wonder how his contract is and if he has anything stipulated where he can also not fight if it is a last second substitution. All of the fans have to be pissed off about this one.

**WARMachine** · 07-22-2009, 04:45 PM

Id be pissed if i actually paid for my tickets.

But since i got them free, i dont really mind.

But i agree, this is lose/lose for Fedor, and win/win for Vitor.

**WARMachine** · 07-22-2009, 04:48 PM

""The California State Athletic Commission has denied Josh Barnett a license because he tested positive for an anabolic steroid , the CSAC said in a statement Wednesday.

Barnett’s June 25 drug test was positive for 2a-methyl-5a-androstan-3a-ol-17-one, said the CSAC, which learned of the results Tuesday and informed promoters Affliction Entertainment and M-1 Global that Barnett’s Aug. 1 fight against Fedor Emelianenko would not be approved.

The CSAC said Barnett’s test was “observed in the presence of a CSAC representative and the sample was sent to the World Anti-doping Agency test facility” at UCLA.

A former UFC heavyweight champion, Barnett was suspended for six months by the Nevada State Athletic Commission in 2002 due to a post-fight urinalysis that revealed the presence of three anabolic agents (Boldenone metabolite, Fluoxymesterone metabolite and Nandrolone metabolite) in his body when he defeated Randy Couture to win the title. Barnett denied using the anabolic steroids and challenged the NSAC’s testing protocol.

He has not responded to Sherdog.com’s requests for comment following his recent test in California. ""

Yeah looks like it was AAS.

**Brown Ninja** · 07-22-2009, 06:01 PM

He still has bitch tits

**MuscleScience** · 07-22-2009, 06:48 PM

He looks like he has never picked up a weight in his life. Seriously what did he take, nolvadex XT???

BG · 07-22-2009, 06:50 PM

sad news, these guys have to learn to run 10ius of gh and be done with it.

**yannick35** · 07-22-2009, 06:51 PM

Vitor Belfort is in to fight Fedor.

**Deltasaurus** · 07-22-2009, 07:05 PM

Lashley didnt take the fight, and i think Dana had him testd or something to screw their event

They have to be smarter....especially the second time around.

**WDMF** · 07-22-2009, 09:06 PM

Too bad Mr. Slice is on TUF. I think a lot of people would at least tune in for that. At least that might give the organization the viewers it needs to stay alive.

Buentello would be an option if he wasn't already fighting. I heard Brett Rodgers, Werdum are officially out of the mix. Not many options at this point.

Wouldn't it be something if they brought in a no name, Fedor doesn't think much of him and Fedor gets KO'd. Highly doubt that would happen but ya never know.

**southmadejd** · 07-22-2009, 11:07 PM

Damnit, I wish Overeem wasn't getting in bar fights and shit, that would at least be a matchup that would intrigue me.

Of course if Barnett failed a drug test than I am not sure how much money I would bet on Overeem passing one.

**Hunter** · 07-23-2009, 01:27 AM

Overeem has always looked pretty good at heavyweight but esp lately he has shown that.

**J-Dogg** · 07-23-2009, 05:11 AM

It's a wasteful fight, for Affliction IMO.

What does Fedor have to gain off this fight? If he wins, he justifies nothing. He's already under the thumb of the MMA world for only fighting 2 top decent contenders in the past 5 years, to secure his legacy.

Now he fights a LHW to fill in for a last minute fight.

Fedor is a great fighter, under awful management that makes poor choices to secure him as the best fighter in the world.

I honestly, have more respect, and think pound for pound, GSP is the best champion there is. GSP WANTS to fight the best fighters, he wants to challenge himself, he wants to prove he is the best.

Fedor seems to have no interest in this, still an incredible fighter, but even beating Tim and Andrea, does not secure him as the best in the world IMO.

Dana can be a real idiot, but at this point, the UFC is king of MMA with no doubt what so ever. No one in Affliction, fighting Affliction fighters, should be considered the top in their weight class.

Fedor is a year late to make a deal to fight Randy, and he'll surly loose out on an opportunity to fight Brock too. Brock made 3 mill his last fight, and I'm sure Dana has offered Fedor that to fight, he was probably making 200k a fight in Pride.

**J-Dogg** · 07-23-2009, 05:23 AM

And how was Barrnett ever considered #2 in the world?

He has lost 2 of his last 7 fights.

In those 7 fights, he fought 1 HW in the top 10, Nog and lost. His other loss was to CC who was a top 10 at the time.

Looking at Barnett's fights, he's beat 1 top 10 HW ever, in his entire career. Big Nog in a split decision in 2006, and Nog beat him in a UD 3 months later.

**southmadejd** · 07-23-2009, 01:09 PM

JDogg, we all want to see Fedor come to the UFC but Fedor is going to make sure it is in his best interest for him to come here. You say he has bad management but his management has made him a very rich man and a legend in his country. He has always had fair contracts and for some reason he feels like the UFC contract is too restrictive and doesn't work for him. Is it too unreasonable to think that Dana would give someone an unfair contract???

Also it is absurd to make it sound like Fedor dodges good opponents. He has fought absolutely everybody that he has been asked to fight and if he does go to the UFC then I am sure he will fight anybody there also.

By the way, Barnett has only lost to Nog who was considered awesome and still is in my eyes when he lost to him and also two of the three times he lost to CroCop one was by injury and the second time it looked weird when he tapped to the strikes, like he got poked in the eye or something. I can't really remember but maybe somebody else remembers that fight better than me. So he has two legit losses on his record and has fought top competition. Maybe #2 might have been a little high but he was around there.

**icepick27** · 07-23-2009, 01:39 PM

I agree with JDOGG 100% every thing he said from fedor having bad mangement ,and ducking real contenders , to barrnet being #2 heavyweight in the world like really who has he fought recently ?? ,wamma is a bunch of ufc hatters that's why fedor and barrnet are up there and brock and carwin are not ..really between the both of them they have done nothing in the last 5 years ,except blow big fights ,and knock out has beens

**Brown Ninja** · 07-23-2009, 03:38 PM

^^^I think you might actually be retarded

**Deltasaurus** · 07-23-2009, 03:43 PM

Vitor has Been confirmed, hopefully he fights hard. I think fedor and brock will happen within 365 days of today. and Fedor will win. Brock may not even be champ by then. I really wish MMA was promoted like boxing and anyone could fight anyone. Then we could have Rich vs Moussasi and Brock vs Fedor and Overeem vs Rogers and BJ vs Aoki, like the old pride cards used to be.

It takes years for good boxing matches to get put together becouse they argue over everything. I hate to say it but with dana ruling mma with an iron fist(ruling most of mma). We see alot more good matches then they do in boxing.

Bro I can't believe that out of all the fights you could have picked, you picked Overeem vs Rogers.

Btw, aren't they both signed with Strikeforce so this fight will probably happen once Overeem's hand heels up and if Rogers keeps winning.

**stpete** · 07-23-2009, 05:48 PM

Not trying to rip thread but want to put this out there for the hell of it.
On the Jim Rome radio show today Brock Lesnars response to Josh testing positive. "I can't believe that Josh would do that. I would never do anything like that to jeopardize my career. He was just wrong for doing those things."
STFU Lesnar. He's another one of these athletes that thinks the fans are stupid and he's always right. I loved how fast he backtracked after Dana jumped his ass for his antics after the Mir fight. Today he also said that he wishes that he could rewind the clock and he would of never said or done those things. hahahaha.....

**icepick27** · 07-23-2009, 05:53 PM

wow another fight were fedor gets to look good in ,him fighting vitor is like brock fighting john fitch , this is horrible , i cant belive this .... at least put him in there witgh i true heavy weight ,what the **** .. i got to give it to vitor though for stepping up that takes alot of balls i hope he wins... but its very unlikely

**icepick27** · 07-23-2009, 05:59 PM

i just dont get it ... with guys like overeem and rodgers ???? iam really stumped ...even lashly would have been better ....and who ever said they wish this was like boxing dont have a friggin clue ...if this was like boxing it would go under ,boxers dont fight good boxers no more they wait untill they are 40 and have nothing to loose to figh each other ,you would have never seen gsp vs penn or champs fighting the #1 contenders ,boxing let money get in the way good fighter are afraid to loose cause if they loose once they dont get big pay per veiw numbers no more ...

A few things:

First, find Fedor's net worth, he might be the richest fighter in Russia, but he was making beans in Pride, no one made good money fighting until the UFC brought the sport more mainstream.

Second, 90% of your top fighters in the world have contracts with the UFC. They are happy, or accept the terms of their contract. Do you think Dana has some disclosure to make Fedors worse?

Barnette seriously has only fought 3 top contenders in his carrier. His last victory over a top contender was in 2006 I believe? To nog, and then Nog came back and beat him in November of the same year.

And he's actually 0 for 3 against CC. He lost to him in 2004, 2005 and 2006.

Pride payed well and the ufc pays most of there fighters like shit only the top guys make decent money. He beat nastula(sp) who was good, beat randy, beat nog, beat hunt, alex emelianko also. All good fighters.
