NSAC Hits Carwin & Nelson With Out Of Competition Drug Test | UFC NEWS


The Nevada State Athletic Commission has requested out-of-competition drug screenings from “The Ultimate Fighter” season 16 coaches, Shane Carwin and Roy Nelson.

The last occurrence of such testing was when Alistair Overeem was scheduled to fight Junior dos Santos on an all heavyweight UFC pay-per-view. In the aftermath it was found that the UFC’s number one heavyweight contender had banned substances in his system and was forced out of the main event.

Overeem is still serving a suspension for the infraction discovered during the out-of-competition test but will be eligible for licensure this December.

Will Nelson or Carwin suffer the same fate as “The Reem.”

Since put on notice the fighters have just a few days to submit their sample to an approved testing facility. The NSAC will more than likely oversee that of Nelson’s being that he is a Las Vegas resident.

Carwin, who resides in Colorado, was given a list of approved testing facilities and must submit to one of the NSAC recommendations.

    Roy Nelson is definitely not on roids, can’t say the same for Shane Carwin, hope not though

  2. Jibril says:

    you can be fat and be on roids lol roy has lost fat and added muscle..but the only way you can say country is definitely not on roids will be after the tests!! i know big guys on roids who are not bodybuilders they are power lifters…so like i said you can be a fat guy on the juice !!!

  3. GET RID OF FITCH (forever) says:

    Still not a random test and everyone knows Carwin has been off the ROIDS since Nelson started begging for him to submit to VADA. Also its not like they just showed up and tested him. Carwin has at least a week to do aLL THE TRICKS of the trade like have saline injected into his body which will skew the poitive test into raeding negative. All i know is the best sports doctors in world who were making over a million a year working for US POstal cycling team used this very test to help Lance Armstrong beat his PED tests. Carwin is as dirty as they come in MMA and easily right up there with Nate “THE CHEAT” Marquardt as one of the worst or most well known CHEATERS in ALL MMA. Carwin has every physical trait possible for someone who has been JUICING for over 20 years. They call it the NEADRATHOL look with forhead all exaggerated back. It takes at least 15 years of full on ROIDING to change your appearance that bad from ROIDS. Some people even call it the lyle Alzedo look. Don’t believe me maybe you should read what UNITED STATES FEDERAL PROSECUTOR had to say about Carwin and his buying massive amounts of ROIDS

    http://www.cagepotato.com/carwin-named-federal-steroids-case-newspaper-report-says/

    PROOF POSITIVE CARWIN IS AS DIRTY AND THEY COME. YES THE AMOUNTS OF ROIDS CARWIN WAS RECEIVIN WAS QUITE MASSIVE PROBABLY ENOUGH FOR 5 FULLTIME HEAVY HEAVY STEROID USERS TO LAST 5 YEARS.(thats how much the Feds estimated Carwin had delivered to his front door and it was an on going orders for years before they got exposed) YES I’M SURE as PAR OF CARWINS ORDERS WERE FOR OTEHR TEAM MEMBERS SUCH AS NATE “THE CHEAT” MARQUARDT AND BRANDON SCHAUB

    • Jonfitchisgay says:

      Yet more people joining the ranks of guilty until proven innocent. He was named. Not prosecuted or indicted. I’m sure people have brought your name up in conversations involving intelligence, that doesn’t mean you have been using any.

    • Mjolnir says:

      Does typing in all CAPS make you feel more intelligent. Because I assure you it doesn’t make you look more intelligent.
      We live in the U.S.A, where you are innocent until proven guilty, all you have is opinion and circumstantial evidence. Has Carwin been caught or convicted. Simple answer, no.
      Kindly shut the hell up or have more to back up what you say.

    • kevin says:

      whats a “NEADRATHOL”?

  4. Dana is Greedy says:

    Well I hope for the sake of real MMA fans both of these guys didn’t try to get over on the system especially knowing they have a good thing going with TUF final..If they can’t compete without the roids maybe they need a new line of work that goes for the dirty ass fighters who have been messing up fight cards these past years…

  5. Know your shit. says:

    Haha ‘jonfitchisgay’ i like that analogy, that guy is a ****ing morone. . You stupid ****, and stop typing in all caps retard you look like a dipshit!

  6. Unknown says:

    Burn it!

  7. reg says:

    the number one contender didnt have banned substances in his system. he had an unacceptable testosterone to epitestosterone levels due to a medication he was given by his doctor to help with a rib injury from sparring with daniel ghita. dont imply he had failed a simple drug test for substances

    • Alistair Connell says:

      I agree with you. Everyone thinks that Overeem was seriously juicing up…but im betting its just creatine. My dad went from being skinny as a twig to something similar to overeem’s size in about a year and a half from the stuff.

      And no I’m not defending the guy because we have the same name. That’s just how I see it.
