LAS VEGAS (AP) – Nagpositibo si Jon Jones sa ipinagbabawal na gamot, ayon sa ulat ng UFC nitong Martes (Miyerkules sa Manila).
Ayon sa UFC, ipinarating sa kanila ng US Anti-Doping Agency ang ulat sa posibleng paglabag ni Jones matapos magpositibo sa doping test na kinuha sa in-competition sample nitong Hulyo 28, 2017.
Kinumpirma ng California State Athletic Commission (CSAC), may kapangyarihan sa naturang kaso, ang resutta sa mmafighting.com.
May ulat na binawi na umano kay Jones ang UFC title, at nakatakdang ibalik kay Daniel Cormier, na ginapi niya kamakailan.
“USADA, the independent administrator of the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, will handle the results management and appropriate adjudication of this case involving Jones, as it relates to the UFC Anti-Doping Policy and future UFC participation. Under the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, there is a full and fair legal process that is afforded to all athletes before any sanctions are imposed. The California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) also retains jurisdiction over this matter as the sample collection was performed the day before Jones’ bout at UFC 214 in Anaheim, CA, and USADA will work to ensure that the CSAC has the necessary information to determine its proper judgment of Jones’ potential anti-doping violation,” pahayag ng UFC.
