Three Amigos Podcast Special: UFC code of silence re: USADA & comparing Jones tainted supps case to others

Welcome to this special edition of the Three Amigos Podcast. A little over a week ago, news broke that the UFC would no longer be announcing USADA flags of its athletes. Iain Kidd and Stephie Haynes look at all the takeaways of this decision and why it could lead to ethical problems.

The second topic revolves around former light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones, who recently received a massively reduced suspension of just 15 months (down from a possible 48 months), stemming from a failed drug test in July, 2017 following his re-match with Daniel Cormier. With this development, Jones is eligible to fight as early as October 28, 2018.
