Guillard:
-Fined $2,100
-Suspended 8 months
-Possible NC if he would have won the fight

Jones submits self to rehab:
-Fine $0
-Suspension 0 days
-Retains Win on record


How is this justified? Anyone want to give it a try?

Maybe because Guillard pissed hot on fight night?

 

[CatchOmega]

maybe because guillard was pinned immediately following his fight, rather than Jones who was pinned one month prior to his fight?

Because Guillard has stupid hair

Out of competition as opposed to in competition. Pretty simple and has been covered ad nauseam on here today.

Some of you guys are heated for the wrong reasons.

 

[chokeyou]

Why don't you actually read one of the several news articles out there before posting a thread about it.

No, it's technically in competition if it's picked up in the post fight drug test. The random tests are considered out of competition. It's a simple distinction.

december 4th is out of competition, thus they couldn't fine him.

If the NSAC can't administer the punishment for out-of-competition testing, THEN WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY TESTING THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE?!?

He wasn't high on coke when competing. Simple distinction. Dumbass.

They can punish them for PEDs (Shael & Wandy for example).

they do a full piss test, despite the list of banned substances being smaller out of competition compared to in competition.
