Communicating through social media, the 34-year-old American shared: “It is with deep regret that I must inform you all that I will not be participating in UFC 303 as a result of consuming a prohibited substance.”
“I did not intentionally cause this situation and I am putting in every effort to resolve it.”
I had been utilizing a customized supplement program from a trusted company that was familiar with my restrictions on what I could and could not consume.
“I received a blended supplement from them that contained a banned substance known as DHEA, which is always prohibited under the UFC anti-doping policy. However, this was sent to me accidentally.”
“It was not until I consumed it that the ingredients were brought to my attention.”
