The UFC announced on Friday afternoon that Augusto ‘Dodger' Montano has failed his post-fight drug test in Mexico City and had been suspended by the promotion for one year.
According to a statement issued by the promotion, Montano tested positive for "exogenous origin of testosterone metabolites" following his fight against Cathal Pendred at UFC 188. Given that the UFC self-regulates during international events such as in Mexico, they enforced a one-year suspension for violating the Fighter Conduct Policy.
The Mexican-born Montano holds a 15-2 professional record and is 1-1 under the UFC banner.
