USADA claims another victim

[teamquestnorth]

The UFC announced Tuesday that Brazilian welterweight Viscardi Andrade has been flagged for a "potential Anti-Doping Policy violation" stemming from an out-of-competition drug test.

Andrade competed for the last time on March 19, defeating Richard Walsh via unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night 85 in Australia, was randomly drug tested 12 days before the contest. The sample was tested by a lab in Rio de Janeiro.

In a statement, Andrade denied using banned substances.

Yes, the in competition period is only 48 hours starting 24 hours before the event. Out of competition just means they won't test for recreational drugs, as it is none of their business.*
