Late Monday, BJPENN.COM<\/a> learned that UFC Hall of Fame legend BJ Penn was pulled from his UFC 199 bout with Cole Miller<\/a> after his admitted use of an IV<\/a> to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA).<\/p>\n

The UFC gave the following statement regarding Penn’s USADA IV violation:<\/p>\n

The UFC organization was notified today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) informed BJ Penn of a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation. <\/p>\n

Penn voluntarily disclosed the usage of a prohibited method – the use of an IV in excess of 50 ML in a six-hour period – during a March 25, 2016, out-of-competition sample collection. <\/p>\n

In accordance with the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, Penn has received a provisional suspension, and has been removed from his scheduled bout against Cole Miller on June 4 in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

“UFC will announce a replacement opponent for Miller shortly, and additional information will be provided by USADA and UFC at the appropriate time as the process involving Penn moves forward.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
