Lesnar failed the test, however USADA didn’t announce it until after Lesnar had already defeated Hunt in the co-main event of UFC 200. That didn’t sit too well with Hunt, who sustained injuries while fighting fighters using PEDs in the past.

Hunt asked the UFC for 50% of Brock Lesnar’s massive $2.5 million purse, or to be released from his UFC contract. Saturday morning, Hunt changed his tune, asking the UFC for 100% of Lesnar’s purse:

The UFC caught quite a bit of criticism pre-fight for waiving the mandatory 4 month transitionary period when a fighter comes out of retirement and is subject to USADA testing.

Stay tuned for updates as they become available.
