8/1 Affliction M-1 Global "Trilogy" Press Conference Pictures

From my friends over at M-1/Afflicition, here are some pictures of the Affliction 3 press conference earlier this week.

Affliction has put on 2 of the better cards over the last couple of years in my opinion, and the 3rd is looking awesome again. The star of the show is, as usual, Fedor. But Affliction has always put other stars and talented fighters in there. This time Fedor will defend his title against Josh Barnett, and I cant think of a fight I would rather see at this point.

PPV Main Card:
Fedor Emelianenko 30-1-0 vs. 24-5-0 Josh Barnett
Renato “Babalu” Sobral 32-8-0 vs. 25-2-1 Gegard Mousasi
Victor “The Phenom” Belfort 18-8-0 vs. TBA
Tim Sylvia 24-5-0 vs. 27-10-0 Paul “The Headhunter” Buentello
Big” Ben Rothwell 30-6-0 vs. 6-0-0 Chase Gormley

The undercard will be shown on HDNet will feature these fighters:
Chris “The Polish Hammer” Horodecki vs. Dan “The Upgrade” Lauzon
Jay “The Thoroughbred” Hieron (17-4-0), Paul “Semtex” Daley (21-8-2), Deividas Taurosevicius (10-3-0) and Brett Cooper (9-4-0)
