“Probably Another One of Dana White’s Plans” – Fans Bash UFC Boss’ Controversial Venture After 6 Competitors Suspended for Doping

Since its inception, PowerSlap, the unique slapping competition introduced by UFC president Dana White, has been no stranger to debates and controversies. However, the latest controversy has cast a darker shadow over the sport. Six PowerSlap fighters were banned by the Nevada Athletic Commission after testing positive for banned substances.

The suspensions, fines, and overturned results have raised concerns about the integrity of the sport and its future. The Nevada Athletic Commission made a significant decision by imposing full suspensions and fines on the six PowerSlap competitors who failed drug tests.

Fan reactions to the suspension

The banned substances ranged from steroids to narcotics, including GW-1516, sulfone, sulfoxide, clomiphene, Buprenorphine, and phentermine. These substances not only violate fair competition but also pose potential risks to the athletes’ health and well-being.

Nevada Athletic Commission about this issue

Nevada Athletic Commission chairman Anthony Marnell expressed disappointment over the number of positive drug tests in recent months, not only in PowerSlap but also in the PFL. Marnell emphasized that the situation undermines the efforts made to clean up the sport and tarnishes its reputation. Moreover, the commission is concerned about the misuse of state resources and the negative impact these controversies have on the sport’s image.

“This is a waste of time, state resources, as it’s degrading to the sport. We had this thing really cleaned up, and now all of a sudden in the last two meetings, I’ve heard more drug cases than I’ve heard in two years. It’s disappointing because that’s not where we were going.”
