The California State Athletic Commission has announced that both Rocye Gracie's A and B samples have tested positive for Nandrolone, Gracie s samples were nearly 10 times what the Commission would have expected of a normal fighter having 50 ng/ml when it would have been expected that a level of 6 ng/ml be present in an ordinary fighter, CSAC were informed that:
"the level itself was so elevated that it would not register on the laboratory's calibrator."
Gracie still claims his innocence and is planning to appeal the findings.Be first to comment this article | Quote this article on your site | Views: 178 |
