Josh Barnett gives updates for Bloodsport XIII card & broadcast team

The card for next Thursday’s Bloodsport XIII has undergone both a few changes and a lively addition according to competitor and booker Josh Barnett.
Barnett took to social media Thursday to announce a few developments which may have been tied to Wednesday’s news that one competitor — Lou Nixon — was pulled from the show and then compensated which was chalked up to some miscommunication.
Barnett’s announcements:
- David Modzmanashvilli will not be on the show as he withdrew from the event. That resulted in what Barnett called a “gap” which led to talent being moved around.
- One of those talents was Simon Gotch who was moved to Joey Janela’s Spring Break, night two.
- Former MMA fighter and former MLW Champion “Filthy” Tom Lawlor (seen above) will join Jimmy Smith in calling the show.
“These things took place a while back and with the event coming next week, (I) wanted to let the public know,” Barnett said on X.
