Over the last few months, the agency has busted several high profile PED-users, most notably former UFC bantamweight champ TJ Dillashaw, and will continue to attempt to catch any fighters who are looking to give themselves an unfair advantage. It sounds like USADA will have some help from UFC interim middleweight champion Israel Adesanya as they continue on their mission.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking in a recent interview with The Schmo, the UFC interim middleweight champ vowed to snitch on anybody he hears is using performance enhancing drugs in the UFC.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Don&#039;t Offer Israel Adesanya Steroids or He&#039;s Snitching\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BVb7675u3Tw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe didn\u2019t need it,\u201d Adesanya said of TJ Dillashaw (transcript via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmanews.com\/israel-adesanya-puts-dopers-on-notice-im-snitching\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MMA News<\/a>). \u201cI don\u2019t think he needed it to be great, but maybe mentally they\u2019re not confident. Something that Cody said, at the press conference when he was talking shit, he said, he\u2019s the one that showed us how to do steroids. So when he said \u2018us,\u2019 that means there\u2019s a lot more people. And even Ali Abdelaziz says he knows five guys who are on it right now, but no one\u2019s snitching. I don\u2019t understand. I tell you what, don\u2019t offer me no steroids, because I\u2019m snitching.
