Agreed, especially since he fled to Holland to avoid a post fight drug test.
Because Overeem has been tested positive to an elevate rate of testosterone 4 month after the Lesnar fight.
They couldn't prove he was positive when he fought Lesnar.
True but he was only granted a conditional license provided he passed 2 future drug tests, inwhich he failed, so the license he fought Lesnar with was invalid. Probaly should have been overturned. But Lesnar was retired and not caring about record or rankings to make a stink about it.

It was months after, and it wasn't his fault. It was his crackpot doctors fault and Overeem even brought the vial which was a mixture of a bunch of things for anti-inflammatory meds for a broken rib. Which is why his sentence was reduced from 1 year to 9 months and the commission even said they did not believe he was using testosterone for peds, or that he even knew he was using them at all. They did say as a professional athlete he must be aware at all times what he is putting in his body. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT. I'm not even much of an Overeem fan anymore, either.

If his license is invalid then Lesnar should be able to sue the commission for allowing a non licensed combatant to fight against him.
I thought they did post fight testing and those were the results. I knew he passed the pre fight testing.
Didn't he fly to Holland to avoid being tested prior to that fight? As I remember it he gave a pretty weak excuse too. But I couldn't say for sure if he ended up being tested or not.
