The highly anticipated bout between Josh Barnett and Jon Moxley is official for Josh Barnett's Bloodsport III on Apr. 2.
The two men were set to clash at Josh Barnett's Bloodsport II on September 14, 2019, but the bout was canceled after Moxley suffered a MRSA infection in his elbow. Both Barnett and Moxley promised they would reschedule the bout and they made good on their promise, bringing the fight to WrestleMania 36 weekend in Tampa, FL.
