Former UFC fighter Gilbert Melendez has received a two-year suspension from USADA after testing positive for a banned substance in an out-of-competition sample collected on Oct. 16.
Melendez tested positive for GHRP-6 and its metabolites GHRP-6(2-5)-OH and GHRP-6(2-6)-OH, which is in the class of Peptide Hormones, Growth Factors, Related Substances, and Mimetics. While Melendez did not dispute the presence of a banned substance in his system, he did contest USADA’s jurisdiction to conduct the test.
