American UFC welterweight fighter Daniel Rodriguez was found guilty of doping and dropped out of the UFC Fight Night 227 tournament.
Recall, Rodriguez was scheduled to fight Santiago Ponzinibbio at this tournament.
I firmly believe that the reason for the failed test is a contaminated sports supplement and am currently actively working with my manager, USADA and the UFC to verify the supplements I was taking prior to the test.
