Barrett is suspicious about the timing of this drug test revelation, coming three months after the fight in question took place. He says he has lost sleep over Tua’s besmirching of his professional reputation.

He also says he was using the supplement when he fought Charles Davis to a lethargic draw in January of this year, and did a drug test then that came up negative. “If I would have failed a [urine] test, they would have never let me leave out of New Zealand with those belts,” says Barrett.

Monte beat Tua twice now. They know damn well he'll win a third time too. This is pathetic. |
