Attorney: USADA confirmed that product Jon Jones used was contaminated

Jon Jones is not out of hot water yet, but he may be getting close.

Ahead of UFC 200, Jones failed a USADA-administered drug test for two banned substances, hydroxy-clomiphene and Letrozole, and was pulled from his rematch with Daniel Cormier.

Jones, who is currently under a temporary suspension, has been adamant since then that he did not knowingly take a banned substance.

According to Jones’ attorney, Howard Jacobs, the product that the positive test supposedly stemmed from was tested by both his team and USADA. The product was found to be contaminated with both banned substances that were found in Jones’ system.
