4. Brock Lesnar Notifies UFC Of His Retirement From MMA
MMA Fighting posted the following:
Brock Lesnar has made no official announcements, but he has notified the UFC of his retirement from MMA, a UFC spokesperson confirmed with MMA Fighting on Tuesday.
Lesnar has also been removed from the USADA drug-testing pool, meaning he is no longer officially on the UFC roster, per USADA spokesperson Ryan Madden. Last week, it was reported that Lesnar’s name had been removed from the UFC’s unofficial online roster.
Lesnar, 39, was suspended for one year by USADA last month after testing positive for the banned substance clomiphene twice over the summer. He would have been eligible to return July 15, 2017, but his suspension has been frozen since he is no longer in the testing pool, per the promotion’s anti-doping policy.
