Baby-faced Assassin turns heel

Josh Barnett is back! Well, sort of. The 'roided out rassler graced Grappling X with his presence at their event in Long Beach, CA. What was the former King of Pancrase, PRIDE Open-Weight Grand Prix finalist & former UFC HW champ doing on the mat in a local amateur tourney? Who knows. Much fun as it is to watch him grapple (like it or not, he's one of the world's best), this doesn't do much for his case as a disgraced fighter who's dirty piss-test pulled out the foundation from the house of cards that was Affliction. Even more so now that he's kveching about not being offered fights that he likes.



Seriously, though...can you imagine signing up for a run-of-the-mill no-gi event & finding out you have Josh Barnett in your bracket?
