Cocaine.

The list of drugs banned both in and out of competition is much smaller than just the in-competition list. You can read the full list here. Some of the things not banned out of competition may surprise you. The following are not banned out of competition by USADA and would not cause a test failure.

Drugs of abuse such as: Cocaine, Heroin, Speed, Crystal Meth, MDMA, Marijuana, and LSD.

Almost all stimulants, including Amphetamines, Adderall, Ritalin and Epinephrine (Adrenaline)

Almost all narcotics, including Oxycodone, Methadone, Fentanyl and Morphine

We can say with some certainty that Jon Jones’ potential USADA violation was not for any of the above drugs as a result. The list of things which could cause an out of competition test failure includes but is not limited to:

Anabolic steroids and other anabolic agents, masking agents, certain "post cycle therapy" drugs such as clomid, certain growth factors and human growth hormone, certain insulin growth factors & related agents, hormone and metabolic modulators, diuretics, IV administration, and blood manipulation (e.g. EPO).

It's not surprising. Jones has always thought the rules didn't apply to him, both in and out of the cage. Just a shame at how much talent and years of his career are being thrown away.
 
This has been gone over in at least 10 different threads. We really needed another one?
 
Jon Jones is the NEWWWW, UNDISPUTED, dirtiest fighter, inside and outside of the cage!
 
Are we starting threads now for information that is out and confirmed via multiple well known sources already? Great!
 
Meldonium. Jacksons fighters have been getting popped for it so that's my guess. Time to bring in a new chemist
 
Is it possible that JJ had special provisions because of his previous positive test?
Some of those drugs seem outrageous to be permitted out of competition
 
His whole career to date is tainted IMO. Much more so than Silva's has been.
 
He tested positive for stupidity.
 
He said in his press conference that he didnt know what it was, that he cant even pronounce it. Its most likely something that was in one of many supplements he is probably taking. Im sure its going to be similar to Romeros situation.
