Kelvin Gastelum defeated Vitor Belfort, even if the record books will no longer officially say so.

In March’s UFC Fight Night 106 headliner, Gastelum (13-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) ventured to Brazil and beat local star and former champ Vitor Belfort (25-13 MMA, 14-9 UFC) via first-round TKO. However, Gastelum tested positive for carboxy-tetrahydrocannabinol(otherwise known as “THC,” a metabolite found in marijuana) in a sample collected on the day of the event, which aired March 11 on FS1 from Fortaleza.

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), the UFC’s anti-doping partner, announced Gastelum’s potential positive test on April 6. The Superior Tribunal de Justica Desportiva do MMA (STJDMMA) – Brazilian Superior Justice Court of MMA – today confirmed it’s reached an agreement with Gastelum. Combatefirst reported it.

I thought they changed the rules so if you didn't smoke a joint just before you fought you'd be good? Was he eating gummy bears while walking to the cage?

He used the weed to fuel his appetite and gain the required mass for 185.

He also tested positive for lays and tostitos

Which are also banned

Basically.

The way your body metabolizes the marijuanas even if you're a heavy smoker, if you stop for about a day it should put you beneath the threshold. So it's pretty much a guarantee that he smoked in Brazil and probably close to weigh in time at the latest in order to be caught.

I think that includes 12 hours after the fight.

Same reason Nate was getting 'investigated' for his CBD pen post McGregor 2.

Lol. Kelvin really doesn't want to succeed does he.

Even if the rules are stupid. They're the rules and they're pretty easy to follow.

Potheads don't have this thing called common sense, bro. Shit that seems obvious to people like you and me just goes right by them in a cloud of smoke
