UFC Suspends Rothwell


After his bout in Milwaukee, Wisconsin this August against Brandon Vera, Ben Rothwell was suspended for testing positive for a high level of testosterone.  Rothwell states that he was granted permission to undergo TRT prior to his bout at UFC 164 but tested above acceptable testosterone limits after his bout.

The Wisconsin Athletic Commission did not choose to suspend Rothwell but gave him a warning instead.  The UFC decided to proceed with a nine month suspension from action in the UFC.  Rothwell has decided not to appeal the decision.
