UFC Fight 14 Fighter Drug Tests Come Back Clean

From MMAMania.com:

The Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) today issued the results of the drug tests performed prior to UFC Fight Night 14: “Silva vs. Irvin” at The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, revealing that all 11 fighters who were screened for steroids tested negative.

Anderson Silva, James Irvin, Tim Credeur, Cale Yarborough, Hermes Franca, Frank Edgar, Cain Velasquez, Brandon Vera, CB Dollaway, Nate Loughran and John Gugerty were all among the fighters who were randomly selected to provide samples before their fights.

The tests are designed to deter fighters from ingesting performance enhancing drugs such as steroids and stimulants.

NSAC has adopted a new year-round drug-testing policy, which is perhaps the strictest of its kind in the sport.
