Rony Jason ’s hopes that a retest would overturn his failed drug test have been squashed. Jason (14-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC) tested positive for hydrochlorothiazide, a banned diuretic, following his May 30 win at UFC Fight Night 67. The Brazilian earned a “Performance of the Night” bonus after scoring a submission victory over featherweight Damon Jackson (9-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC). However, following the event, the Brazilian Athletic Commission MMA (CABMMA), which oversaw the event, announced the failed test . The regulatory body suspended Jason for nine months, and his win over Jackson was flipped to a no-contest. Today, CABMMA announced the “B” sample also tested positive for hydrochlorothiazide: First, it is important to state that CABMMA is an independent entity dedicated to the development and regulation of MMA in Brazil.
