    Per Mike Chiappetta


    BREAKING: The Nevada athletic commission unanimously passes a motion to ban TRT exemptions in combat sports.

    The Nevada Athletic Commission has voted unanimously to ban TRT in combat sports. Done deal. It's gone.


    No more applications and current users will have to stop.

    This ruling could quickly spread to other major athletic commissions, especially California who as of late have been trying to show they are cutting edge.

    Hopefully the UFC will follow suit and ban it when they go to Canada, Brazil, Europe, etc.
