    Drostanolone this time. Last time it was Boldenone (2006). Both are straight up anabolic steroids. Bonnar unofficially retired following the bout leading some people to suspect he might have a failed test on the way.

    In related news, Dave Herman failed his drug test as well, with marijuana metabolites in his system. Herman failed last October as well in a pre-fight screening, also for marijuana.

    Since there is no athletic commission in Brazil, the UFC drug tested its own fighters, which is a dubious policy but in this case they did find and reveal two failed tests.

    I bet Bonnar used them to cut weight, also. Oh well. Still an exciting fighter. Sucks he got popped twice for roids, but he left his heart in the cage so whatever. I can at least respect that.

    As for Herman, I'm shocked he hasn't been cut yet.

    Herman has been suspended for six months and must attend a drug rehabilitation program as a condition of being re-licensed.
