<p>Following failing a drug test, and second in nine months, Robert Drysdale was suspended by the NSAC and now released from the UFC roster:</p>
Two strikes and Robert Drysdale is out.
A decorated jiu-jitsu wizard, Drysdale was released from the UFC after a positive drug test result following his first-round submission victory over Keith Berish at The Ultimate Fighter 19 Finale on July 6, UFC president Dana White announced today in a post-fight media scrum in Macau, China.
Song2 - They have to cut anyone who tests positive from now.
nah i don't watch other sports but i think other mainstream sports give second chances after a fine and suspension from the first failed test. same with the ufc but i do agree on banning them for failing a second test. drysdale is a POS for stepping in the cage and not having a problem with cheating for a second time.
About an hr ago it was confirmed he hadn't been released yet so Dana was wrong when he said he thought he was cut. Not to say it may have not changed in the last hour though

If they ban everyone on first failure eventually there wont be any failures. Risk too high
They won't be. Drysdale failed 2 tests in one year.
They should be cut. Ortega was making his debut and Casey was making a return. The UFC should cut ties now before spending any more time, money, or energy on these two.
