Still Bellator lightweight champion Usman Nurmagomedov commented on the information that he failed a doping test after the fight with Primus.
“I would like to give a short comment on the latest news regarding my suspension. My test results revealed a prohibited substance that had entered my body through medications prescribed to me by a doctor. A few months before my fight, I underwent treatment, but, unfortunately, I did not notify the Athletic Commission in advance. “I would like to note that the state commission conducted its own full investigation, where I submitted all the necessary documents, extracts and medical certificates, due to which the period of my disqualification was reduced to six months, instead of the longer suspensions used in such cases,” the fighter said.
