Okay, so let's get one thing out of the way first. Jon is 100% on PED's. Just like every fighter, but I finally took the time to read the specifics of what happened:
He tested positive for Turinabol. Turinabol is a cheap oral steroid, like $70 cheap which works like Anavar. It's a strength builder that happens slowly over time. There is absolutely no reason to take post weigh in. At all... It would literally do nothing.
Just think about this for one second: Here is a man who popped for PED's. Faced a huge ban, and now has popped for oral Turinabol post weigh in... This makes zero sense.
He wouldn't even be taking Turinabol period. It is one of the cheapest and most detectable PED's. It's detection time is huge. He has a post fight drug test. The moment he pops the pill he knows with 100% certainty he's failing the post fight drug test let alone any post weigh in tests.
I know there is a lot of people who don't know what Turinabol is or how PED's work, but no athlete would be taking PED's right before competition. Their benefits come during training camp. The only thing any fighter would ever pop for post weigh in are diuretics to help with a cut.
Not a Jones fan here, just pointing something out. There is literally no reason anyone would take Turinabol post weigh in. Something fishy here.
EDIT:
I think I need to make one other point clear: T-Bol needs to be taken daily. It's in the system for a long time. Lets forget about the post weigh in test for a second and move to the day before he starts camp.
Now lets imagine he's selecting his PED's. Why Turinabol? It has to be taken daily. He knows he will be randomly tested. Turinabol is in the system for up to months. You cannot take Turinabol without popping. It's just not a viable option with today's testing.
To be as clear as possible. Even taking this in camp is guaranteeing a positive test. It makes no sense.
And for those confused by the 16 hours half life:

In a statement released Tuesday, the UFC said Jones' failed test stemmed from an in-competition sample that was collected at his weigh-in July 28, the day before his fight against Cormier.
