Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) has overturned Anderson Silva’s victory or Nick Diaz in his comeback fight at UFC 183 following Silva’s positive test for performance enhancing drugs in a pre-fight screening.
NSAC tested Silva for banned substances January 9th, but only received the results of the failed drug test the day after the UFC 183 pay-per-view fight.
NSAC executive director Bob Bennett the news to Brazilian outlet Fohla:
“It will be ruled a NC (no contest). I don’t know if he will receive the win bonus after this change. That’s UFC’s call, but a percentage of his purse will be held because of this episode.”
