USADA has flagged the out of competition drug test of UFC bantamweight Francisco Rivera for a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation from a sample collection on July 23, 2016.
Rivera last fought Erik Perez on July 30th at UFC 201. He is on a 3 fight UFC losing streak.
The UFC provided its usual statement related to potential violations of its Anti-Doping policy.
“The UFC organization was notified today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has informed Francisco Rivera of a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation stemming from an out-of-competition sample collection on July 23, 2016.
Payout Perspective:
The news does not look good for the 34-year-old. One would think he would appeal the ruling considering a 2-year ban would effectively end his MMA career.
