Heavyweight fighter Josh Barnett has failed a second-sample test, the California State Athletic Commission confirmed on Friday.
Barnett was set to fight Fedor Emelianenko at the canceled Affliction Trilogy event.
Barnett has nothing to say to fans who are upset that he will not be fighting Fedor, due to his failed steroid test.
“I wish I could,” Barnett told MMA FanHouse. “But when you get involved in things like this, that’s not really an option right now. So I have to just sit back and wait. Things will be released as fast as I can.”
