Will the UFC dare take a chance on Josh Barnett?

I'm sure negotiations are ongoing with Barnett and a lot of other guys.

Hard to argue with that.....and the updated fight history, no less.

I don't think Marquardt is 100 percent confirmed. He and Dana still have ruffled feathers. I heard he was still possibly making a move to Bellator.

Than I guess UFC lies on their own show. It is 100% confirmed, man...

I think the people who continue to condemn Josh Barnett are the same people who continue to condemn Jeff Hardy. People up. In both athlete's cases, more than once. If Josh doesn't come over, I'd be really bothered. He's a top heavyweight and he belongs with the other top heavyweights of the world.

LMFAO. Jeff Hardy. Steroids > Cocaine. Both are athletes. Both got busted for illegal drugs and ed their company more than once. Some say them both, some say the past is the past. I'm not talking about what's morally right or wrong. The above facts are all I'm going by, here.

LMFAO. Jeff Hardy. Steroids > Cocaine. Jeff Hardy isn't competing in a real sport. I'd argue that Barnett's case is worse.

Sorry, but I'll forgive Barnett for pissing a couple times for steroids way before I forgive Jeff for his problems. But that's neither here nor there.

Jeff's case falls into personal issues and bad decisions. Josh was cheating at a competitive sport.
Both cases suck, I love both guys, and I wish the best for both of them. I'll leave it there.
I hope Feijao comes over. Love watching him fight.
Also, no Jardine? Can't say its a shock, but I thought the UFC might try and get a fight or two out of him.

Jardine is 2-7-1 in his last 10. Not sure why UFC would be interested.
Feijão is still suspended until May.
