Jorge Gonzalez never got the chance to make his UFC debut and now it appears he’ll have to wait until at least 2022 for that opportunity.
On Friday, United States Anti-Doping Agency officials announced Gonzalez tested positive for multiple banned substances and he’s now been suspended two years under the UFC’s anti-doping policy.
“Gonzalez Villa, 36, tested positive for stanozolol metabolites 16β-hydroxystanozolol and 4β-hydroxystanozolol, drostanolone metabolite 2α-methyl-5α-androstan-3α-ol-17-one, and tamoxifen metabolite 3-hydroxy-4-methoxytamoxifen as the result of a urine sample collected out-of-competition on August 5, 2020,” USADA officials wrote.
“Upon being added to the UFC Anti-Doping Program, athletes are required to declare all medications and supplements they have used in the previous 12 months.
