Do you believe Malki Kawa's passionate defense of his client?
“He’s devastated,” Kawa said on The MMA Hour. “He’s devastated and he’s hurt.
“It’s amazing that you can go from being at the very top of the mountain, everything that you can possibly do to gain the respect the admiration of everyone involved, fans, family members, the people in the UFC, just everyone, teammates, other fighters, and then to go from that, everything he’s been through to finally doing everything perfect — because last time he was being negligent, right? — this time he was being perfect and double-checking everything to [prevent] something like this from happening to him. It’s unbelievable, it’s unreal, and we’re all pretty much shocked. We’re all shocked and devastated.”
Kawa confirmed the anabolic steroid Turinabol was the substance in question that Jones tested positive for, and said that he expects the results of Jones’ B sample to be returned within two weeks. Kawa plans to send out “an expert” to ensure the handling of the B sample is done properly, and said that the UFC is allowing Jones his due process before making any decisions regarding the UFC light heavyweight title.
“I can almost bet my life on it that this is another tainted supplement,” Kawa said.
