YOEL ROMERO FAILS USADA DRUG TEST
Las Vegas, NV (January 13, 2016)– Yoel Romero has failed one of his out-of-competition drug tests. The UFC made the official announcement on Tuesday, January 12th. This should disqualify Romero’s chance at a title match vs. Luke Rockhold.
The UFC organization was notified today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) informed Yoel Romero of a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation stemming from an out-of-competition sample collection.
USADA, the independent administrator of the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, will handle the results management and appropriate adjudication of this case involving Romero. Additional information will be provided at the appropriate time as the process moves forward.
