Riddle Joined BJPenn.Com Radio tonight to discuss what happened and what he plans on doing next.
"They (UFC Legal Department) hit me up yesterday and said I failed a drug test," Riddle told BJPenn.Com Radio. "I still don't know how it's possible; I quit smoking three weeks out from the fight, I've passed drug tests when I quit two weeks out from a fight; it's just crazy. I asked for my numbers and they sent me a form that just aid I tested positive for marijuana. It didn't say how much, it just said I was over the amount,"
"It is what it is I've failed two drug tests in seven months. There's not much I can do I was prescribed my medicine and I'm going to take it. I got fired for taking my medicine because I don't want to take pharmaceutical drugs or testosterone. This is what works for me, it's just s****y, but it is what it is."
He's a drug addict plain and simple. He knew he shouldn't be smoking and yet chose to do so. The fault is all his.
as a pot head i agree, but if they could test if you fought high i would agree but who cares if he blazes the day before or after for that matter. i think overall the laws are bullshit but he knew whats up and made his decision.
I appreciate his candid honest response. I think they should show him the actual results of the test. With all that Amal talking Joe Silva I'd want to be sure I actually failed.
