Leading up to the Josh Barnett vs. Fedor Emelianenko bout at "Affliction: Trilogy," a lot has been -- and will be -- made of Barnett's relationship with "The Last Emperor." Some have questioned if he really wants to fight Fedor, while others have said that he may be distracted by his respect for the Russian fighter. But if Barnett's demeanor at Wednesday's Affliction press conference in New York City is any indication, "The Babyfaced Assasin" will be all business come August 1. When FanHouse spoke to Barnett about his upcoming fight against MMA's pound-for-pound king, the discussion quickly turned to pro wrestling, corruption in politics, Kimbo Slice on "The Ultimate Fighter," and women's MMA. He even dropped several renditions of a now-famous MMA catch phrase. It's never a dull moment when you're around Barnett. Check out the full video interview below.
