Quote:CSAC executive director released a statement to ESPN saying it is aware of Jones' failed test and will work with USADA, which administers the UFC's anti-doping program, in any results management and disciplinary hearings.
"The California State Athletic Commission has been made aware of Jon Jones' test results and is looking into the matter," the statement read. "The Commission takes these matters very seriously and will take any appropriate actions necessary after a thorough review of the situation."
Guess he's about to get stripped again. Why, Jones? Why?

Well, they are doing a second test, so you never know. They also didn't say what it was. He may have just smoked a joint.

TMZ reported that he had been stripped from his title, but it seems that they got ahead of themselves.

It's an anabolic steroid, Torinabol.
They are going to test the B sample, but it's hard to imagine they'll have a different result.
I am disappoint.

Everything about his life is pinned to his performance, is why. Even doping, he can lose it all in an instant. The incentive to dope is stronger than the incentive not to. People might say "but what if he gets caught!"
-Before or after he cashed that check?
