On Thursday, less than 24 hours after he was flagged by USADA for a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation, which ultimately resulted in him being removed from the UFC 200 card, where he was scheduled to compete against Daniel Cormier in the main event, “Bones” held a press conference to announce how he plans to handle the situation.

Thus far, Jones has revealed that he is being accused of taking a banned substance that falls under the “performance-enhancement” category, and that he fully intends to fight the ruling and use his rights to have the B-Sample re-tested, which will happen later today.
With Jones vs. D.C. 2 off the card, UFC 200 will feature a main event of Brock Lesnar vs. Mark Hunt. The show takes place on Saturday, July 9, 2016 from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
