LMAO Brock failed another test, the one he took the night of the fight on July 9th.
USADA: Brock Lesnar’s UFC 200 in-competition test also tested positive | MMAjunkie
According to a UFC statement, Brock Lesnar was notified of another failed drug test by United States Anti-Doping Agency, the promotion’s drug testing partner.
Lesnar (6-3 MMA, 5-3 UFC) was previously notified of a potential anti-doping violation for a test taken on June 28, 11 days before his UFC return and victory over Mark Hunt at UFC 200.
After the first anti-doping violation, Lesnar provided a short statement to the AP, claiming, “We will get to the bottom of this.”
Today’s statement, posted on the UFC’s official website, claims Lesnar also was notified of a failed test for the same substance on July 9, the date of the bout.
Per the UFC and USADA’s standard procedure on potential doping violations, the substance for which Lesnar tested positive was not disclosed, and will not be unless the fighter discloses it or the results management process has concluded.
Returning to the octagon for the first time in five years, Lesnar (6-3 MMA, 5-3 UFC), a former heavyweight champion and pro wrestling champion in the WWE, evaded the heavy-handed Hunt (12-11-1 MMA, 7-5-1 UFC) and repeatedly took the fight to the mat and worked ground and pound. Judges gave him a unanimous decision by scores of 29-27.
Here is the full statement on the second violation:
“The UFC organization was notified today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has informed Brock Lesnar that his in-competition sample collection from July 9, 2016, at UFC 200, has tested positive for the same substance as his previously announced out-of-competition collection on June 28, 2016.
“USADA, the independent administrator of the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, will handle the results management and appropriate adjudication of this case. It is important to note that, under the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, there is a full fair legal review process that is afforded to all athletes before any sanctions are imposed. The Nevada State Athletic Commission also retains jurisdiction over this matter as the sample collection was performed at UFC 200 in Las Vegas.
“Consistent with all previous potential anti-doping violations, additional information will be provided at the appropriate time as the process moves forward.”
