Josh Barnett, Yoshiro Maeda vs. Cole Escovedo announced for DREAM.13

After a failed drug test, numerous appeal-hearing delays, the collapse of Affliction Entertainment, and the loss of a would-be fight with Fedor Emelianenko, Josh Barnett (24-5) finally makes his return to competition.

The heavyweight fighter, who hasn’t fought in 14 months, today was announced as a participant for DREAM.13.

The organization also announced a bantamweight bout between WEC veterans Yoshiro Maeda (26-7-2) and Cole Escovedo (15-4) for the March 22 event.
