RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil — Anderson Silva was provisionally suspended by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) after failing another drug test. He was just another Brazilian name to join the list lately.
Former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos is also currently suspended by USADA, as well as PRIDE veteran Antonio Rogerio Nogueira, who tested positive for the same substance (hydrochlorothiazide).
Jose Aldo, who never failed a drug test throughout his MMA career, weighed in on the situation of his fellow Brazilians during a UFC media day at Nova Uniao.
