An alleged failed drug test may have thrown the Professional Fighters League featherweight finals into a bit of disarray.

On Thursday, MMAJunkie reported that Daniel Pineda has failed a post-fight drug test from the Nevada State Athletic Commission following his two wins in October. It has not yet been announced what substance led to this potential failed test. Jason House, manager of Pineda, also stated that they were looking into what happened, and that the team was considering an appeal after more information comes in.
