    MMAWeekly is reporting that Fedor Emelianenko's brother Aleks will not participate at Affliction: Banned in a scheduled bout against Paul Buentello.

    Reportedly, "Emelianenko failed to meet his licensing requirements".


    Also, Justin Levens, scheduled to meet Ray Lazama at the event, weighed-in at 189lbs for a middleweight fight. No word on what will happen there.

    Gary Goodridge could replace Aleks in a last-minute switcheroo.

    I hope Paul kills goodridge... actually I was hoping for the same vs Aleks, but this is much more likely now [​IMG]
