Bantamweight Trevin Jones pulled off a sensational comeback at UFC on ESPN 15 in his octagon debut against Timur Valiev. But he won’t get credit for it due to a positive marijuana test.
Jones, 30, was stripped of his win after the Nevada Athletic Commission on Wednesday voted to overturn the decision of the fight, which took place Aug. 22 at UFC APEX, to a no-contest. Additionally, the commission issued a 4.5 month suspension and fined him $1,945.36 ($1,800 of his show purse and the rest in court costs), and required him to submit clean drug tests at three intervals before he gets another fight license.
