If you’re wondering why we haven’t seen Michel Prazeres in a UFC fight over the last 11 months, we not only have our answer, we also know he won’t be back inside the Octagon until at least 2021.
A press release from the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) revealed that the Brazilian welterweight tested positive for the banned substance boldenone last March, and he’s since been handed a two-year suspension.
Prazeres, 38, tested positive for exogenous boldenone and its metabolite 5β-androst-1-en-17β-ol-3-one as the result of two out-of-competition urine samples he provided on March 9, 2019.
