"Sonnen is staring at a long layoff if he elects not to appeal or is denied. He was scheduled to rematch Silva Feb. 6 in Las Vegas, but that fight may be delayed or scrapped in light of these allegations."

WTF?! a instant rematch?!
WHY?!?!?!

It wasnt like Machida's or BJ Penn's fights where it was too close to call in their respective fights and went to the judges.

Silva/Sonnen fight never went to the scorecard. Sonnen lost!

what are drugs-of-abuse?
what are performance-enhancing drugs?
And is it a simple piss test?

On MMA Live tonight, they reported that Chael actually told the commission of his testosterone use (via doctors orders, which would have been legal) prior to the drug test, but did not follow procedure by submitting the notification in writing.

If its for actual medical reasons it would have been ok.
Yeah, I think Couture has been on HRT for years. Chael had serious bacne at the weigh-ins, which generated speculation by many observers about him juicing.
