Josh Barnett reacts to USADA decision: ‘I proved my innocence’

Yesterday, after a very lengthy process, the United States Anti-Doping agency reached a resolution in their case against Josh Barnett. The veteran heavyweight tested positive for Ostarine in December 2016 and was facing up to a four-year suspension, but he chose to take his case to arbitration. And in the end, he proved his case and was only issued a public reprimand by USADA.

Not long after the decision was made public, Barnett took to Twitter to give his side of things:

I proved my innocence as I stated from the beginning and now I can look towards getting back in the ring in the neat future.
