UFC welterweight fighter Josh Quinlan was pulled from the card ahead of his Saturday night fight due to an “atypical drug finding”, the UFC announced on Saturday afternoon.
The Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) removed Quinlan from his fight in Las Vegas against Jason Witt after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency detected a trace amount of the long-term metabolite of the steroid DHCMT in his urine sample. The trace amount did not trigger a UFC anti-doping violation, but the NSAC removed him from the fight pending a hearing, per ESPN.
This is not the first time that Quinlan has faced doping questions.
