T.J. Dillashaw reveals ‘adverse’ USADA finding from UFC Brooklyn, plans to relinquish UFC title

T.J. Dillashaw has revealed that the New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) and USADA have informed him of an “adverse finding” from a drug test stemming from his first-round loss to Henry Cejudo, who he faced for the flyweight title at UFC Brooklyn in January.

Dillashaw also revealed that he would relinquish his UFC bantamweight title out of “fairness and respect” for the rest of the division until the matter is resolved.

The former bantamweight champion broke the news of the findings and his relinquishing of the title on social media on Wednesday morning.
