I'd heard that the upcoming Affliction event was cancelled because of the Josh Barnett testing. The one thing that the UFC does want out of this is Fedor. White is going to have to make some consessions, however, in order to get him.

That was my thought when I heard this deal. That Dana was majorly going after Fedor. Fedor doesn't want an exclusive contract because he still likes to compete in Sambo and and in Russain events. I guess we have to wait and see.
