Casey fails UFC 211 drug test; win over Aguilar changed to no-contest

Jerome Miron / USA TODAY Sports

Cortney Casey tested positive for elevated testosterone levels in her screening for UFC 211 in Dallas, according to records obtained by MMA Fighting's Marc Raimondi on Friday.

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation normally flags fighters whose testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio is above 4:1. Casey's was 5.4:1, Raimondi reports. As a result, her unanimous decision win over Jessica Aguilar has been overturned to a no-contest.

Flagged fighters are typically suspended for three months and fined $2,000 under the TDLR's guidelines. Casey's penance has already been entered in the Association of Boxing Commissions' database.
