Ultimate Fighting Championship fighters will find that little will change for them going forward.

The promotion sent out a press release on Thursday announcing its new policies on drug testing and doping. Titled the "UFC Anti-Doping Policy (UFC ADP)," it will begin for the company on Dec. 31 as it concludes its arrangement with the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA). Competitors will still be subject to random drug tests at any time during the day by the new agency in place, Drug Free Sport International (DFSI), or an organization DFSI has contracted out.
