The NSAC will on Tuesday vote whether
Alistair Overeem gets additional time to gather support for his recent
claim that a doctor-prescribed anti-flammatory caused him to fail a
pre-fight drug test, or if a vote on his current license request is
already in order.
“My assumption is that he’ll need to explain why he needs a
continuance,” NSAC executive director Keith Kizer today told
MMAjunkie.com.
If the five-member commission votes to grant him one, the entire matter
will be pushed to an NSAC meeting in summer, Kizer said, and Overeem
will be restricted from fighting professionally.
