Cain Velasquez Isn’t Surprised By Brock Lesnar’s Failed Drug Test

October 4, 2016 | Posted by Joseph Lee

In an interview with MMA Fighting, Cain Velasquez said that he wasn’t surprised that Brock Lesnar failed his drug test for UFC 200. He was tested by the USADA prior to the event and tested positive for Hydroxy-clomiphene, an anti-estrogenic agent. Here are highlights:

On Lesnar’s failed drug test: “I would say from looking at his body that it didn’t surprise me, you know? He’s just a big, massive guy and you don’t see other fighters like that.”

On not taking joy in the failures: “That he came out positive, it kind of sucks because I just want my competitors, the guys who I fight against, I want them to be on the same level that I am, you know? Just some of the people out there that are cheating, it’s good that we’re catching them, USADA is doing a great job of catching them, and hopefully discourages others from doing them so this sport can be a clean sport.”
