Why wasn't Overeem's fight against Brock changed to a NC?

Due to his roids.

In a way, it seems like he probably should be. He missed his original random pre-fight test against Lesnar, and was only granted a conditional license to fight.

Part of those conditions were to test clean in two future random tests. Of course, he failed his first random test, so you would think that would void his conditional license and make the Lesnar fight a NC.

But the NSAC only has a very limited set of conditions in which they can turn a result into a NC and it didn't foresee these circumstances so the win stands. They also can't do it ex post facto, or Barnett's win over Randy would be a NC too.

I'm a licensed fighter, and I had a tumor that had to be removed and it threw all my hormone levels off, and I had to take TRT for about 6mos. Luckily my levels returned back to a level that was normal. Since I still had the script, I kept using TRT. I found that it greatly enhanced my recovery levels after a hard workout, and helped me feel ready for my next workout sooner! I applied for a therapeutic exemption for TRT and got it!
