SEAL BEACH, California (July 6, 2009)-Japanese combat fighting
superstar Takanori "The Fireball Kid" Gomi has been added to the
Affliction M-1 Global’s locked-and-loaded "Trilogy" card against
upset-minded Rafaello "Tractor" Oliveira, completing the five-fight
Pay-Per-View event, live August 1 from Honda Center in Anaheim.

The premier heavyweight mixed martial arts fighter in the universe,
Russian icon Fedor "The Last Emperor" Emelianenko (30-1-0), defends his
WAMMA heavyweight title against No. 1 contender, Josh "The Babyfaced
Assassin" Barnett (24-5-0), in the special main event.

GoDaddy.com presents Affliction M-1 Global’s "Trilogy," featuring
Fedor vs. Barnett in association with Golden Boy Promotions and
Donald J Trump. The show is separated into two live broadcasts on
the same night-a one-hour special will air on HDNet starting at 7:30
PM/ET (4:30 PM/PT), followed by the sensational Pay-Per-View event,
"Trilogy," commencing at 9PM/ET (6 PM/PT).

Gomi (30-5-0), 4-time All-Japan Combat Wrestling Champion, is a former
Shooto welterweight and PRIDE lightweight title-holder. His strong
wrestling background and ambidextrous striking ability make him a dual
threat to contend with. The Japanese warrior will be fighting in the
United States for only the second time in his pro career. Among his
many victims is former UFC® champion, Jens Pulver. The once-beaten
Oliveira (8-1-0), fighting out of Knoxville, has won three in a row
in 2009, since suffering his only loss by doctor stoppage last October.

Also appearing is Strikeforce® Light Heavyweight Champion Renato
"Babalu" Sobral (32-8-0), who takes on Armenian kick-boxing artist
Gegard "The Dreamcatcher" Mousasi (25-2-1), making his American debut
in an intriguing co-main event.

Also on the PPV card is former UFC® Light Heavyweight Champion Vitor
"The Phenom" Belfort (18-8-0) against Sengoku middleweight title-holder
Jorge Santiago (21-7-0), while knockout specialist Gilbert "The
Hurricane" Yvel (36-13-1), fresh off of his devastating first-round
knockout of 3-time UFC® heavyweight title challenger Pedro "The Rock"
Rizzo, squares-off with former UFC® heavyweight title challenger,
Paul "The Headhunter" Buentello,.

The stacked undercard on HDNet features ex-IFL® Welterweight Champion
Jay "The Thoroughbred" Hieron (17-4-0) versus former Cage Rage
belt-holder Paul "Semtex" Daley (21-8-2), young lightweight prospects
Chris "The Polish Hammer" Horodecki (12-1-0) and Dan "The Upgrade"
Lauzon (12-2-0), and former IFL® heavyweight titlist "Big" Ben Rothwell
(30-6-0) tangles with hot, unbeaten prospect Chase Gormley (6-0-0).

Two other HDNet fights include featherweight L.C. Davis (13-2-0)
meeting former KOTC and Gladiator Challenge champion Javier "Showtime"
Vasquez (13-2-0), and former IFL® lightweight challenger Deividas
Taurosevicius (10-3-0) facing Mark "The Machine" Hominick (16-8-0). Two
