Earlier this week, UFC veteran Cody McKenzie was hit with a four-year suspension for providing a ‘urine substitute’ in a drug test<\/a> administered ahead of his cancelled fight with JD Domengeaux at Tuff-N-Uff: Fight Night.<\/p>\n

Here’s how a NSAC official told the at the hearing (which Cody McKenzie was not present for):<\/p>\n

\u201cOn Sept. 14, 2018, prior to his contest at the Orleans Hotel, he was given a valid request by a commission representative to provide a urine sample before his bout, but the respondent, Mr. McKenzie, refused and declared that he was going to go to his room and would not provide a sample until it was closer to his bout. When the respondent did return and provide a sample, the sample itself registered as abnormally high \u2013 in temperature, that is. When he was confronted about this, he made several representations including that if \u2018this\u2019 got out, he would lose his job, as well as an admission that he had smoked pot that day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the respondent was asked if he had anything hidden on his person, had at first denied it, but upon further questioning, he ultimately relinquished from his clothing a bottle of urine substitute. This bottle, which he had concealed on his person, in his clothing, was capped with a nozzle that would let its liquid contents be streamed from it. The bottle, itself, contained a warm, yellow-tinted liquid that match the false contents of the sample he provided. Additionally, the bottle had a hand-warmer attached to it by a rubber band. This conduct by the respondent is not only an anti-doping violation, but it also violated other regulations that govern the commission.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, this is not where the ugliness ends. Having been hit with this four-year ban, which effectively ends his ability to fight on North American soil for the foreseeable future, Cody McKenzie is now accusing a NSAC official of sexual harassment.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey said if I didn\u2019t piss in a cup right before my fight \u2014 literally I was warming up \u2014 my fight was about to happen in five minutes and they\u2019re yelling at me, telling me I need to take the piss test and I\u2019m like, \u2018No, I can\u2019t take a piss right now. I\u2019m warming up for my fight. I\u2019ve never f*ckin\u2019 taken a piss in my life before a fight. I\u2019ve fought for 15 years. Leave me alone,\u2019\u201d Cody McKenzie told MMA Fighting<\/a>. \u201cWe start fighting back and forth, they started saying we\u2019re not going to let you fight unless you f*ckin\u2019 piss in the cup. So I f*ckin\u2019 just went in the bathroom and poured something in the cup and it was funny because I was telling them I wasn\u2019t going to let them watch me pee.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd one of the [commission inspectors] whipped out his f*ckin\u2019 dick, \u2018cause he\u2019s like, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s not that f*ckin\u2019 hard.\u2019 And he takes his dick out and shakes his dick at me. I was like, \u2018Dude, that\u2019s f*ckin\u2019 sexual harassment.\u2019 You can\u2019t do that. That\u2019s bullshit, you know? There was five or six witnesses standing right there. Nothing ever came out about it. I talked to the commission about it countless times, they just keep saying there\u2019s an investigation going on, which I haven\u2019t heard a thing about it, they won\u2019t talk to me about any of it. I\u2019m like, \u2018You guys are ridiculous. You guys are f*ckin\u2019 crazy.\u2019 That\u2019s nuts to me. You don\u2019t pull your dick out and shake it at somebody, especially in this day and age.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey haven\u2019t fired the guy that I\u2019ve heard of, I haven\u2019t heard of any repercussions coming their way. It\u2019s just a bunch of bullshit. The Nevada State Athletic Commission\u2019s just a joke.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a response to MMA Fighting, NSAC director Bob Bennett assured this accusation from Cody McKenzie is inaccurate, and that the accused harasser no longer works for the commission.<\/p>\n

\u201c[McKenzie\u2019s] allegations are not accurate,\u201d Bennett said. \u201cWe\u2019re currently looking into the matter accordingly. At the current time, that inspector is no longer working events for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cody McKenzie’s cancelled fight with\u00a0Domengeaux was supposed to be the last of his career. With this fight off the table, and this massive suspension preventing him from fighting in North America, he seems to be done with this whole MMA racket.<\/p>\n

He says there’s just no money in it, and he’s better off working more traditional jobs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was going to be my last fight ever,\u201d Cody McKenzie said. \u201cThat was my retirement fight. I haven\u2019t trained for five years for a fight. I work jobs now to keep a roof over my family\u2019s head, I don\u2019t have time to train all the time anymore. There\u2019s no money in it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI fought\u00a0Chad Mendes, the No. 1 ranked guy in the world at the MGM Grand and made 10 grand. What\u2019s the point, you know? I fought in\u00a0The Ultimate Fighter<\/em>\u00a0and fought three guys back-to-back and made $8,000 when I was already 28 grand in debt. There\u2019s no money in the sport, there\u2019s no point in doing it for me anymore. I was a fan favorite, I had a big fan base, but that\u2019s all I had. I didn\u2019t have any money coming my way ever, so I just gave up on the sport about five or six years ago and my record shows it.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Cody McKenzie says he’s now hanging up the gloves for good, he assures that he never, ever did steroids.<\/p>\n

\u201cDoes it f*cking look like I do steroids? Hell no. I\u2019ve never done steroids in my life. Like the commission cares. If you do steroids, you don\u2019t even get in trouble.\u201d<\/p>\n

What do you make of this complicated situation between Cody McKenzie and the NSAC?<\/p>\n
