Jon Jones fined $205,000, has license revoked by CSAC in doping case

ANAHEIM, Calif. — One part of Jon Jones’ doping sanctions have been decided.

The California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) revoked the MMA license of Jones and fined him $205,000 at a hearing Tuesday at the DoubleTree Suites by Hilton. Jones, the former UFC light heavyweight champion, tested positive for the steroid Turinabol in an in-competition drug test in relation to his fight with Daniel Cormier at UFC 214 last July.

CSAC executive officer Andy Foster recommended that CSAC does not re-instate Jones until the conclusion of his USADA suspension, which has not yet been set.
