If he were really a Nazi he wouldn't have signed with a Jewish manager, Vadim Finkelstein, but that won't placate some people.
Given the conflicting stories it is perfectly reasonable to speculate what really happened.

this shows the lack of credibility in MMA media, that sucha rumor can be spread as truth by so called "professional journalists" is a joke
Aleksander's name is cleared, and the MMA media should be ashamed of themselves

That'd be a great KO win for Aleksander, but personally I am dying for a Josh Barnett rematch
I want to see Aleksander defeat Josh Barnett, I know he will
He is too good for Josh Barnett at this point

You're obviously not Russian and have not dealt with American authorities from this side.

Anyways, how would paul buentello have confidential medical information about anyone else other than himself? How can Nafalgarcommando (or whatever his name around here is) have inside information about Hep B positive tests?
These rumours are rumours, the only one I've heard talking about it is Aleks (and I'd take anything he says with a grain of salt). Personally, I think they didn't clear him because he was running a fever of 98.6 again
Glad to hear he's fighting on the next Affliction card, can't wait to see him fighting again! And I'm really glad to see he's still rocking the mullet!

LOL - Alex's word is more trustworthy than that of the CSAC; Alex being one of the more credible dudes with a criminal record and all
Im sure all of his future opponents will take his word over that of the CSAC "dont worry about it - it was all a mistake, paperwork was late.... i dont have any nasty like the Hep; thats just an internet rumour; just like my criminal record"
