JON JONES FAILS HIS B SAMPLE TEST
Las Vegas, NV (July 8th, 2016)– Jon Jones has failed his B sample according to USADA. A spokeperson for the US Anti-Doping Agency confirmed that the interim light heavyweight champion’s ‘B’ sample also tested positive for a banned substance on Friday.
Jones was hoping his second sample would come back negative so he could clear his name from this mess during the UFC’s biggest week of events ever. Jones could face up to a two-year ban from fighting depending on the severity of the punishment from USADA. Jones was pulled from the main event of UFC 200 on Wednesday when it was first discovered his test from June 16 turned out positive.
At Thursday’s press conference, Jones denied knowingly taking a banned substance, but did note that he did not record all of the supplements he took during training camp. UFC president Dana White ripped Jones’ decision making on Friday.
“There’s nothing for me and Jon Jones to talk about,” said White. “I haven’t [talked to him] and I’m not gonna. There is nothing for us to talk about … The guy is a professional and I truly believe, and I’m not the biggest Jon Jones fan right now, but I truly believe that he took a supplement that had this stuff in it and it wasn’t intentional. I truly believe that, but at the same time, come on! You’re 28 years old. You’re arguably the greatest talent to step foot in this sport, right? Call USADA and tell them what supplements you’re taking!”
Anderson Silva will replace Jones against Daniel Cormier at UFC 200.
