Melvin Guillard has had many issues over the years - working his way through many MMA camps, being unable to make weight, and failing drug tests are just a few of them. The latter of those has popped up again for Guillard following a Bellator 159 win over David Rickels.
Guillard, who was unable to make weight for the fight, failed a drug test for a non-PED substance, and has been suspended for one year. In addition, he was fined $10,000.
