    Diaz's test is whatever, who really gives a shit about pot.

    Silva's, though... bad day for the sport. Casts doubt over his whole career.

    Hey assholes, if you're going to test a fighter out of competition, try to get the lab results back before he fights!

    I don't really like Silva. But maybe he did it to try and heal his leg faster?

    If they come out and say that's the reason he'll get some sympathy but this test was from a few weeks ago, not six months ago.

    As much as I don't really like him, I thought he was always one of those guys who did it 'the right way'

    Black House has four hot tests (Silva, Ortega, Casey, Cavalcante) since 2012. The last three have all been for drostanolone aka Drolban aka Masteron.

    There is another out-of-competition test and his post-fight test that have not been resolved.

    If this is the only failed test it seems unlikely the NSAC would overturn the bout decision.

    Diaz, a three-time offender, is going to get hammered. I'm guessing his license to fight in Nevada will be permanently revoked.

    Apparently this is the Black House nutritionist and conditioning trainer Rogerio Camoes, who is 57...

    I'm guessing Jacare is going to be getting some random visits next time he is scheduled to fight.
