UFC anti-drug czar praises ‘clean UFC athletes’ Alistair Overeem, Hector Lombard, six others

For the last few months, the UFC has been recognizing fighters that have passed 25 consecutive USADA drug tests. It’s apparently a way to bring awareness to the program and to give a bit of props to the athletes that are consistently fighting clean. They even maintain a list of fighters that have achieved this status.

High-profile names like Conor McGregor, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Holly Holm, and Daniel Cormier all grace the page. Almost all of the fighters on the list have never had any kind of issues at all when it comes to drug testing, whether it was by USADA or the commissions that handled the testing before them.
