"Honey, there's someone at the door..."
California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) made a few unannounced visits last week to those stateside fighters competing at the upcoming UFC Fight Night 71 mixed martial arts (MMA) event on FOX Sports 1, which takes place on Weds., July 15, 2015 inside Valley View Casino Center in San Diego, California.
MMA Fighting has the report:
The test results are expected back from the UCLA Olympic Analytical Laboratory before the event. CSAC does not yet have a contract to collect in foreign countries. (CSAC Chief Andy) Foster said he was considering collecting samples from those international fighters as soon as they arrive in California and running stringent carbon isotope ratio (CIR) tests for them to make it fair.
Gulp.
UFC Fight Night 71 will be headlined by a heavyweight feature fight pitting old school vs. new, as former division champion Frank Mir tangles with the streaking Todd Duffee. Elsewhere on the card, Tony Ferguson collides with Josh Thomson in lightweight action.
