Out of the Octagon for more than two years, UFC veteran Nick Diaz has just been hit with a potential anti-doping violation by USADA. If you’re wondering if Diaz tested positive for a banned substance, that’s not the case. Here’s the official statement released by the UFC on Thursday:
The UFC organization has been notified that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has informed Nick Diaz of a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation stemming from Diaz’s alleged accumulation of three Whereabouts Failures within a 12-month period. Diaz, like all other UFC athletes, is enrolled in USADA’s UFC Registered Testing Pool and required to file accurate Whereabouts information in order to be located for out-of-competition, no-notice testing.
