Lyoto Machida may be serving an 18-month suspension, but that hasn't stopped 'The Dragon' from training hard in the gym to prepare for his UFC return.
Machida, a former UFC light heavyweight champion, was handed an 18-month suspension by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) in November of last year after his admitted use of 7-KETO-DHEA, a prohibited substance that helps burn fat.
Machida was expected to rematch the now-retired Dan Henderson at UFC on FOX 19 but was pulled from the bout after admitting to using 7-KETO-DHEA.
Machida's suspension expires on October 8 and the 38-year-old teased fans about a return.
