IT'S TIME UFC 200 Official Fight Thread (Silva/Cormier, Lesnar/Hunt, Aldo/Edgar II, Tate/Nunes)

[Northern Son]

They already pulled him from the card, there's a zero percent chance he fights on Saturday. USADA is going to review his case, but more then likely it's going to be a long time before we see Jones fight again.

This is a USADA decision, there's nothing the UFC can do about it.

UFC were so stupid for bringing USADA into their organization. They really thought this wouldn't happen? The NFL would be shut down in two years from too many test failures if they brought USADA testing in.

LET THEM USE THEIR ROIDS .

Shut up

Nate Diaz wasn't lying when he said everyone was on steroids. So what happens if Jones is found not guilty with this shyt because three is a b sample that can be tested

 

[The ADD]

His manager is saying he wasn't doping...

What else is he going to say

 

[Vilify]

What a waste of time.

 

[LinusCaldwell]

Looks like it's a supplement issue with Jon Jones. Something he's been taking for years. Didn't intentionally try to cheat. Hopes to be clear. Sample B to be tested today

 

[So UnThotful]

Everybody getting caught up with issues with supplements, might as well just at this point, just stay from them

 

[CM_Burns]

Still a great card even if it lacks that one huge fight.

 

[The G.O.D II]

He's talking now. And he sounds resigned to the fact he's guilty and taking a two year ban

 

[puppetmaster]

Sadly this will be a crying jones meme before nightfall.



Jones had the people on his side too, everyone loves a redemption story. Rough

The failed drug test was out of competition, which rules out recreational drugs (weed, cocaine, narcotics, etc.) It's looking like the failed drug test is probably PEDs.

Shut up

Truth hurts . Your favorite athlete is on roids, dummy.

When he tested positive for Coke it wasn't out of competition

That's why it was controversial that he was even tested and those test results were made public, because he technically didn't violate any rules.

The failed drug test for Cocaine was from the athletic commission. The athletic commission tests for recreational drugs in and out of competition. USADA however does not test for recreational drugs out of competition.

Jones did violate the athletic commission's guideline (when he tested positive for Cocaine).

In this situation, since the drug test was out competition and administered by USADA, recreational drugs were not tested. That pretty much rules them out, leaving PEDs as the likely culprit.
