CB Dollaway leaves UFC after USADA suspension, gets Rizin title fight at NYE

CB Dollaway was in the middle of a two-year suspension from USADA, but it looks like he will now be allowed to ply his trade elsewhere. The 11-year UFC veteran has been granted a release from the promotion and is currently booked for the joint Bellator-Rizin new year’s eve special.

As announced by officials, the 36-year-old Dollaway will be moving up to face Jiri Prochazka for the Rizin light heavyweight title.

Dollaway has a 17-9 record, going 2-1 in his last three fights and 11-9 total with the UFC. Prochazka, on the other hand, is 25-3-1 overall and currently riding a nine-fight winning streak.
