The UFC organization was notified today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has informed athlete Bradley Scott of a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation stemming from an in-competition sample collected on May 27, 2018.
USADA, the independent administrator of the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, will handle the results management and appropriate adjudication of this case involving Bradley Scott. Under the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, there is a full and fair legal process that is afforded to all athletes before any sanctions are imposed. Additional information will be provided at the appropriate time as the process moves forward.
Scott lost a Split Decision to Carlo Pedersoli Jr. at the event. He is now 3-5 in the UFC.
At this point, there should be no assumption that Scott is guilty of anything. For example, in a little over a year, Ning Guangyou, Li Jingliang, Augusto Montano, and Brandon Moreno each was flagged, for Clenbuterol, but eventually found No Fault due to the ubiquity of trace elements of Clenbuterol in the food chain in their home nations. As noted, Scott will be subject to an investigation, with full details becoming known in time.
