    “UFC announced today that a scheduled bout between Mirko Cro Cop and Anthony Hamilton in Seoul, South Korea has been canceled. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has notified both Mirko Cro Cop and UFC that he has been provisionally suspended at this time due to a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation.

    “USADA, the independent administrator of the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, will handle the results management and appropriate adjudication of this case involving Cro Cop. Additional information will be provided at the appropriate time in the process.”

    Looks like they are cracking down on everything but they never specified what it was. Every UFC fight has someone being cut due to injury or PEDs. What the hell?

    Why is anyone surprised? Sports and PED's are TOO common to separated.

    Ach, dammit. I knew Cro Cop's recent run of form was too good to be true :( Hope it turns out to be innocuous.

    :-( They should just throw out the drug test and let everybody just brawl it out.

    HGH wouldn't help performance in the slightest.

    Crocop is battered now. I believe him when he say's it was for his shoulder.
