Why Is A Brock Lesnar USADA Sample Missing?"},"content":{"rendered":"

Bringing you the weird and wild from the world of MMA each and every weeknight<\/p>\n

Welcome to Midnight Mania!<\/p>\n

It could just be an error, but one of Brock Lesnar’s USADA samples is missing from the USADA database. <\/p>\n

Ive gone through @USADA_UFC<\/a> ‘s xml with a fine toothcomb. <\/p>\n

Only Lesnar’s test numbers have dropped between 28\/11 and 7\/12, no other fighters affected<\/p>\n

Sample is from 17\/10 reporting period. 2 samples reported that week originally. <\/p>\n

1 has vanished or been removed. pic.twitter.com\/0IPIabXQMD<\/a><\/p>\n

It is noteworthy mostly because of Lesnar’s history with USADA and the UFC. He was granted a special testing exemption<\/a> in order fight Mark Hunt at UFC 200, a fight he handily won, only for tests to return afterwards positive, a result USADA could have sped up, but chose not to<\/a>. Mark Hunt is currently in the process of suing Lesnar and the UFC<\/a> over the entire incident.<\/p>\n

Now, he is back in the testing pool in order to potentially face UFC heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier sometime in 2019. Naturally, suspicions run high around another MMA return for the 41-year-old athlete. Daniel Cormier wants to ‘drug test the hell out of him<\/a>’, and former UFC bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz says he’s absolutely doping<\/a>. <\/p>\n

This is something to keep an eye on.<\/p>\n
