Slice and Shamrock failed drug tests in relation to Bellator 149 last month in Houston, as originally reported by MMA Fighting. Now we know for what substances.
Slice tested positive for the steroid nandrolone and also had an elevated testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio. Shamrock tested positive for nandrolone and methadone, an opioid used to treat pain or detoxify in people with a drug dependency. Shamrock also had an elevated testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio. The two men submitted urine samples in a pre-fight collection.
The test results were obtained by MMA Fighting through a public records request with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
