Jon Jones USADA blood tests post-UFC 214 were negative

MMA Fighting reports that Jon Jones passed a USADA blood test post-UFC 214.  However, his urine test post-weigh-ins at UFC 214 indicated a failed test.

However, the blood test would not have been screened for Turinabol, the drug that is banned by the UFC Anti-Doping Policy.  In addition, MMA Fighting learned that Jones passed two USADA out-of-competition tests on July 6^th and 7^th.  One a blood and urine test and the other a urine test.

Despite the contrary results during the month of July, Jones could be facing a maximum of a 4 year banishment from the UFC.

Payout Perspective:

This case will likely face another appeal if the preliminary investigations are inconclusive.  Obviously, Jones could still be liable of taking a banned substance despite passing early out-of-competition drug tests and the in-competition blood test.  The likely hope is to mitigate the suspension.
