THE STORY
In July 2016, UFC fighter Jon Jones was removed from the UFC 200 main event after testing positive for banned substances in an out-of-competition sample collected on June 16. The substances identified were hydroxy-clomiphene and letrozole metabolite, both anti-estrogenic agents. As a result, his scheduled bout against Daniel Cormier was canceled, and Brock Lesnar's fight with Mark Hunt was promoted to the main event. (latimes.com)
