He was popped for pct drugs, and anyone who has ever taken steroids before (I am one of them) knows it. This time around it is for the actual anabolics. He is upset he was caught, but isnt any less guilty. If testing for the "b" sample allows him to save face with the fans, great, but certainly doesn't fool me. On top of that it is a scientific lab doing the tests. There isn't anabolic, or any other type of dust floating around to Taint a sample. These labs are extremely sanitary. He should bypass step 2, and move on to step 3 in having his lawyers locate something on the market with tbol in it, then claim he was taking that specific supplement (while I laugh).If you were suspended for tainted supplements once, wouldn't you be paying to have all of your supplements tested for banned substances?
I don't even think he said he might be taking it. I think he said he does (or did at the time). That was dhea, btw, and why that is banned is nuts to me.Leniency for honesty would be a great start.
remember how machida got fucked and suspended or admitting that he "might" have taken an illegal substance. Never ended up popping for anything but was suspended for being honest.
UFC wouldn't let him out of his contract.He should just go fight in Rizin now. His US career is over. I'm the words of the orange buffoon, "Sad!"
OMGJon is going to get
And the winner by unanimous decisionGuys it's important to remember that there is still an arbitration process, during which Jones and his legal team will get their chance to defend him/explain their side.
I also think I should bring up the "No fighter-bashing" rule in the site's Community Standards.
Let's try to be respectful, please.

He can't. If he claims that he was taking something that he didn't put on his pre fight check sheet the csac will press criminal charges against him.He was popped for pct drugs, and anyone who has ever taken steroids before (I am one of them) knows it.

I think they will, and I don't see any way he gets out of this one by claiming it was tainted supplements. Turanibol is a pretty rare compound that isn't going to be found in supplements or "dick pills".Do you think they will give him the full 4 years? Will he be able to claim tainted supplements?
He can either admit to taking tbol (jon would never admit to anything), or he can admit he was taking a supplement with tbol in it. Has csac ever pressed criminal charges on a fighter? If so, what was the result? I'm not being a douche, I just haven't heard of this before and want to know what the outcome has been in the past.He can't. If he claims that he was taking something that he didn't put on his pre fight check sheet the csac will press criminal charges against him.
He's well and truly fucked.
Agreed. What a talent, could've been the GOAT, if only...There goes the greatest, just like that. Rashad was right all along.

Didn't know this. Great info guys. Keep it upHe can't. If he claims that he was taking something that he didn't put on his pre fight check sheet the csac will press criminal charges against him.
