UFC on FUEL TV 2 Drug Tests Come Back Clean


By Adam Cronklin:

A fantastic card is made better as every drug test from the UFC on Fuel TV 2 event from Sweden, came back clean. All 24 fighters were tested under an election conducted by the Swedish MMA Federation. This was a good move for Sweden especially in a time where so many athletes are under scrutiny for using questionable substances.

Headlining the card was Swedish native Alexander Gustafsson and Thiago Silva. Silva was coming off of a one year suspension after submitting a sample of urine that wasn’t his, (or human for that matter). This is great news for fight fans and UFC brass alike as Silva appears to be on the path to restoring his reputation as a clean fighter.
