Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Bantamweight veteran Francisco Rivera -- who is currently mired in a three-fight losing streak inside the Octagon -- was recently notified that United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) flagged his most recent drug test for a potential performance-enhancing violation. "Cisco" most recently competed at UFC 201 last month, dropping a unanimous decision to Erik Perez.
"The UFC organization was notified today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has informed Francisco Rivera of a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation stemming from an out-of-competition sample collection on July 23, 2016. USADA -- the independent administrator of the UFC Anti-Doping Policy -- will handle the results management and appropriate adjudication of this case.
