ELIAS THEODOROU DRUG SUSPENSION

 

The drug test result from PFL Fight Night: MacDonald vs. Sanchez are in, and Blurcat can report that the regional commision have announced that Elias Theodorou (17-5-1 NC, 1-2-1 NC in PFL) has tested positive for PED´s. His fight against Vladmir Mineev has therefore automatically been registered as a No-Contest and, perhaps more importantly, he is now banned for a mandatory a one year period

 

Theodorou has denied any wrong-doing prior to his bout with Vladimir Mineev, writes Victor Love. He claims that his drug test failure (for PED´s) was the result of a lab mix-up, and that suspension is unwarranted as he was not using any ilegal substances at all

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

PFL WILL MAKE FIRST CARD IN CHINA

 

The PFL officially announced its first card in China on its social media.

 

The main event will feature Wilson Reis (24-10-1 NC) and Adriano Morais (21-3) in a Flyweight collision.

<strong><span style="font-size:14px;">ABUSUPIYAN MAGOMEDOV OUT OF THE FIGHT AGAINST TYRON WOODLEY </span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

An injury, a medium facial injury, sustained during training by Abusupiyan Magomedov (24-5-1, 5-2-1 in PFL) has led to the cancellation of his planned bout against Tyron Woodley (20-5-1, 1-0 in PFL) at PFL Fight Night: Holm vs. Faszholz, writes Sean Smith.</p><p> </p><p>

For the place of Magomedov, the PFL chose Ian Heinisch (15-5) to replace him.</p><p> </p><p>

Heinisch who came to be a contender for the UFC middleweight belt and was defeated by Derek Brunson at UFC Fight Night: Brunson vs. Heinisch 2 and ended up cut by the UFC after being defeated by Rodolfo Vieira in his last fight.</p><p> </p><p>

Woodley will make his first fight in the Middleweight Division, after being eliminated from the PFL season by failing to weigh-in for two opportunities. In his only fight for the PFL he beat Douglas Lima in the first round by TKO.</p><p> </p><p>
