Royce Gracie Suspended for Positive Steroid Test
The California State Athletic Commission has handed down a one year suspension and $2,500 fine to mixed martial arts legend Royce Gracie for failing his drug test administered for his June 2 bout with Kazushi Sakuraba at Dynamite!! USA.
Gracie tested positive for Nandrolone, an anabolic steroid.
Sakuraba was also tested for banned substances and passed without incident.
Gracie won the three-round bout via unanimous decision, ending Sakuraba's undefeated streak against the Gracie family.
Gracie has 30 days to file a notice of appeal with the CSAC if he hopes to reduce his suspension.
