BAD MMA News — Sat, 14 Oct 2017 22:20:33 +0000

Dhiego Lima is feeling some type of way about Jesse Taylor ’s recent failed doping test. Taylor (31-15 MMA, 1-1 UFC), who earned the “The Ultimate Fighter 25” crown with a second-round submission of Lima (12-6 MMA, 1-4 UFC) at the show’s finale back in July, was flagged by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) after estrogen blocker clomiphen was caught in a test conducted on Aug. 22. Other than adding quite the unfortunate twist to what had been the redemption story of the year , the bust forced Taylor out of a UFC Fight Night 121 encounter and got him a one-year suspension from USADA
