Affliction: Alex Emelyanenko vs. Josh Barnett II

Alex: "There is an agreement that on the 24th January show by Affliction and M-1 Global, I will have the rematch with the former UFC champion Josh Barnett. But it is likely that before that I will fight on the traditional New Year's show in Japan. But negotiations on the fight still going on."




Inside source says...nope

Why do we need to watch Josh beat up little brother again? I want to see him take on the Fedor himself!

Isn't the fight in the U.S.?  I don't think Aleks can gain entry, regardless of what the promotion wants.

Aleks can gain entry. He did last time. The issue is passing the medicals to fight.

 Because Alex wants to fight with Josh, he was disrespectful in interview on sherdog saying some shitty things about their first fight. And when Barnett came to him to talk about it, Alex retracted from his words. lol

why no fedor vs barnett? I dont think they have fought before. Barnett has been winning, why arent these two put together?

 good fight, but theres new fights to b made

ttt

 Aleks was winning the fight for the first 10 mins.


yep. until he gassed and Josh got him down and subbed him immediately.


Aleks also injured his hand in the first round.

 If true, this is an odd fight for Josh to take if he turned down Fedor. Aleks is no walkthrough, arguably as dangerous to Barnett as Fedor or moreso because of his size and real KO power, and of course the reward for beating him isn't even in the same ballpark.

LOL @ "[Brokom] By [lesnarom]"...is that the new "Rickson by armbar"?
