Kimbo Slice has reached an agreement with the Texas athletic commission following a drug test failure earlier this year.

Unlike virtually every other athletic commission in North America, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation doesn't punish people who fail PED drug tests very harshly. That might even be an understatement - after all, the first offense penalty is generally a 90-day suspension and a $2500 dollar fine.
