Brock Lesnar Comments on Potential USADA Violation

– The Associated Press has published a report on Brock Lesnar’s potential violation for an out-of-competition drug test on June 28, including a new statement from Lesnar on the situation. On Friday, Lesnar issued a statement to the AP, saying, “We will get to the bottom of this.”

The report also mentioned that it has copies of three letters from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency sent to Lesnar. The letters informed Lesnar that he had passed tests on three samples that were submitted over a nine-day period in mid-June. The sample with the positive test was collected on June 28.

Lesnar turned 39 years old this week. Normally, USADA requires athletes to submit to testing for four months before a UFC competition. Lesnar was given a shorter testing window since it was a short time between the announcement of his return and his fight at UFC 200. However, he was still rigorously drug tested by USADA since he announced his return to the sport.

Lesnar’s results were received last Thursday from a WADA-accredited lab at UCLA. According to the report, the test was not processed in time to prevent Lesnar from fighting at UFC 200, which was held on July 9 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Previously, when Lesnar was asked about PED use previously in a conference call before UFC 200, he stated, “I’m a white boy and I’m jacked. Deal with it.”
