Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight Yaozong Hu has accepted a 10-month suspension from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency after testing positive for a prohibited substance.

Hu (3-2) has been suspended 10 months after testing positive for a banned substance, USADA announced in a statement. He tested positive for arimistane and its metabolite, as a result of a dietary supplement that contained these substances.

Due to his cooperation with USADA, his suspension was lowered from one year to 10 months, despite that he discovered the supplement contained these substances after the fact.
