Tim Means Flagged for Anti-Doping Violation, Pulled from UFC Fight Night Pittsburgh

The UFC Fight Night event in Pittsburgh has taken a major hit, as Tim Means was pulled from the Feb. 21 event’s headliner due to a potential Anti-Doping policy violation.

The UFC released a statement on Wednesday revealing that Means was flagged as a result of an out-of-competition test. As usual, USADA “will handle the results management and appropriate adjudication of this case.”

Although athletes are entitled to a full review process before receiving any punishment, the proximity of the event does not allow for the UFC to keep Means on the card.
