Things can get heated on Twitter. Yoel Romero found that out the hard way thanks to UFC middleweight Michael Bisping.
Romero (11-1) was informed on January 12th, 2016 that he potentially tested positive for a failed drug test taken out-of-competition. His team insisted that it was due to a tainted supplement that caused him to fail his USADA test, however, and the supplement was indeed found to have had the incriminating substance in it despite not listing it on the label.
USADA announced on Monday that Romero has accepted a 6-month sanction for an anti-doping policy violation after testing positive for a prohibited substance from a contaminated supplement.
Bisping got wind of this and took at shot at Romero via social media:
“Tainted supplement? 6 months? That’s no suspension. He could have killed somebody. What was the supplement? No mention of it. Come on.”
@kobeduranttony @YoelRomeroMMA he's a cheating twat. Simple. Tainted supplement my arse! Same old story. Very disappointed with usada.

Romero last fought at UFC 194 when he defeated Ronaldo ‘Jacare’ Souza on the main card and is currently on a seven-fight winning streak.
It’s possible that when Romero is cleared to fight that the UFC could book a fight between Bisping and Romero. Time will only tell.
