Trouble may be mounting for a former UFC lightweight fighter, as his temporary suspension following a positive drug test has been extended.
According to a recent report from MMAFighting.com, the Nevada Athletic Commission revealed that Justin Jaynes tested positive for benzoylecgonine, a metabolite of cocaine, following his unanimous decision victory over Marlon Gonzales at Tuff-N-Uff 149 on October 25.
Consequently, “Guitar Hero” was suspended by the commission on November 26 and will remain sidelined until the NSAC determines any further disciplinary action. Jaynes could be subject to additional sanctions, including an extended suspension, financial penalties, or even having his victory overturned to a no-contest due to the failed drug test.
