CALIFORNIA STATE ATHLETIC COMMISSION SUSPENDS LICENSE OF FIGHTER CRISTIANE JUSTINO SANTOS - a.k.a. CRIS CYBORG

Mixed Martial Arts fighter tested positive for anabolic steroid in December 16, 2011 test

The California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) has suspended the license of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter Cristiane Justino Santos, better known in MMA circles as Cris Cyborg, and has fined her $2,500 as the result of a positive test for a banned substance.

Santos' December 16, 2011 drug test came back positive for stanozolol metabolites. CSAC learned of the test results December 23, 2011 and suspended Santos's license, with the suspension applied retroactively to December 16, 2011. In accordance with Rule 368, the result of her last fight between Hiroko Yamanaka will be changed to a "No Decision".

"Our primary concern is for the health and safety of fighters," said CSAC Executive Officer George Dodd. "Anabolic agents and other banned substances put not only the users of those agents at risk, but their opponents as well. The commission simply will not tolerate their use."

The use of certain substances, including anabolic steroids, is prohibited under the Commission's regulations, and CSAC has among the toughest drug testing standards of any Athletic Commission in the country. It is the only commission that requires urine samples to be taken in the presence of a commission representative prior to a bout.

Santos's provision of a urine sample was observed by a CSAC representative and the sample was sent to the World Anti-doping Agency test facility at the University of California, Los Angeles. Santos has the right to appeal the suspension of her license.

I was about to post this but you beat me to it....as a lot of you said, what a "shocker" lol

I mean, I remember her almost slaming Tito Ortiz down when she grappled with him a while ago and thought, "WTF, she has to be on something." But what do i know.

It's funny, I had just found this interview and was going to post a thread to get someone to translate.

Google translator does a nice job to the title. Very fitting with the rest of the days news.:)


Phenomenon of MMA, Cris 'Cyborg' says he would accept fighting men


This could actually be a good thing. It makes womens MMA look a little more competitive in general and it makes a rematch with Gina MUCH more interesting.

Ouch. I dont understand why she is still on them, surely she dosnt need to do them anymore?

Lmao is anyone surprised.

It is a complete FACT that women do not produce enough testosterone to look the way she looks. Its safe to say her husband and alot of that gym are on roids too. People believing that steroids are not the norm in MMA are delusional. Womens MMA its probably not as common but they also dont have many fighters.

E quando você treina com seu marido, dá prejuízo para ele?
Não, ele deixa eu bater (risos). Aí a galera fica zoando que eu estou brava em casa e bato nele, mas ele não revida. Na parte de MMA, ele é meu professor.
Please someone translate this. Google translator is great.

And when you train with her ​​husband, loses money for him?
No, let me hit it (laughs). Then the gang banging is that I'm mad at home and beat him, but he does not fight back. In the MMA, he's my teacher.
