Sean O’Malley suspended 6 months for 2nd violation

10-0 bantamweight Sean O'Malley tested positive for a prohibited substance and received a reduced six-month sanction from USADA, consistent with other supplement contamination cases, for his second anti-doping policy violation.

O'Malley, 25, tested positive for ostarine as the result of out-of-competition urine samples he provided on August 6, 2019 and August 12, 2019. His two positives, as well as additional positives collected after August 12, 2019, were treated as a single violation because the estimated concentration of ostarine in the urine samples was consistent with ingestion prior to August 29, 2019, the date O'Malley received notification of his second violation. In addition, the pattern of low urinary ostarine concentrations observed in multiple samples provided by O'Malley was consistent with exposure to ostarine as a contaminant. Ostarine is a non-Specified Substance in the class of Anabolic Agents and prohibited at all times under the UFC Anti-Doping Policy and UFC Prohibited List.

After a thorough investigation into O'Malley's positive tests, including extensive follow-up testing, his agreement to keep a food log, his increased level of care in selecting supplements, and finding no evidence of intentional use, USADA resolved O'Malley's case with a six-month period of ineligibility. O'Malley's period of ineligibility began on August 6, 2019, the date his positive sample was collected.

Edit (h/t YonYones): O'Malley fight vs. Jose Alberto Quinonez at UFC 248 on March 7, 2020, will not be effected, as the suspension will have concluded.

Apologies for potentially misleading. I added to the content that he is still fighting. It was the 3rd suspension I did today, and did not give it adequate thought.

There was no clickbait intention, no do I believe there was by any other site:

Tom and Dana were never frIends.

Hopefully he hits the ground running and makes up for lost time. He has the potential to be a "pretty big deal" IMO, he's got the personality and fight style for it. As long as he keeps winning...
