Anderson Silva Fails Another Drug Test

Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images(LAS VEGAS) — Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva failed another drug test that was given by the Nevada State Athletic Commission on Tuesday.

Silva tested positive for the steroid drostanolone, which is the same banned substance he tested positive for back in early January.

“I have not taken any performance-enhancing drugs,” Silva said shortly after the initial failed test. “My stance on drugs is and will always be the same. I’m an advocate for a clean sport.”

This is now the third drug test that Silva has failed; his last was on Jan. 31.

Silva is 34-6 in his career and is coming off a victory over Nick Diaz at UFC 183 in Las Vegas.
