The MMA community is still buzzing over the fact that Jon Jones was flagged for the second time in his career for a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation<\/a>. What makes the news even more shocking is how Jones just recently came off a one-year suspension<\/a> for testing positive for banned substances last year in July. To add to the drama, Jones just won the UFC light heavyweight title back in a devastating fashion by being the first competitor to knock out and finish Daniel Cormier.<\/p>\n

\"Daniel<\/a><\/p>\n

An intial report from TMZ<\/a> stated that Jones tested positive for the anabolic steroid Turinabol. Jones manager Malki Kawa also said<\/a> that it was Turinabol that Jones popped for while talking on The MMA Hour on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

MMA Fighting’s Marc Raimondi\u200f also tweeted<\/a> on Thursday that he got a confirmation from USADA that Turinabol was the banned substance Jones tested positive for.<\/p>\n

Raimondi tweeted: USADA has confirmed to me what Malki Kawa said yesterday on #themmahour: Jon Jones tested positive for turinabol.<\/p>\n

Kawa has been a strong voice for Jones who has been backing his friend and client<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\"Malki<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI know Jon better than anybody, and I\u2019m telling you, this man does not cheat. He has no reason to,\u201d Kawa said on The MMA Hour (transcribed by Shaun Al-Shatti for MMA Fighting<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m encouraging everyone to go out there and take a look at the tests he passed and the test he failed. It\u2019s a three-week window the month of the fight. Jon has passed seven unannounced tests, and the one he\u2019s going to fail is the one that\u2019s announced? It\u2019s weird to me, there\u2019s a lot of things here that don\u2019t add up, and to the UFC, it doesn\u2019t add up.”<\/p>\n
