If there is one thing we’ve learned in the United States Anti-Doping Agency’s (USADA) short partnership with the UFC, it’s that they don’t play around when it comes to testing it’s athletes.

USADA has reportedly tested former UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar five times since he was added to the program two weeks ago, according to the agency’s website, and MMAFighting later confirmed the news with UFC vice president of health and performance Jeff Novitzky.

While we await on Lesnar’s test results to be released, Novitzky stated he wouldn’t be surprised if ‘The Beast’ was tested a few more times before stepping into the Octagon at UFC 200 this July:

“I’d expect there are even more to come as well before UFC 200,” Novitzky said.

Lesnar (5-3) is a former UFC heavyweight champion who hasn’t seen Octagon action since his disappointing showing against current title challenger Alistair Overeem, in their main event bout at UFC 141 in December of 2011.

The current World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) superstar has been granted a ‘one-off’ UFC appearance by Vince McMahon, to step inside the Octagon at the blockbuster UFC 200 event this July.

Lesnar will collide with Australian knockout artist Mark Hunt in the co-main event of the colossal card in ‘Sin City’.

UFC 200 takes place live on pay-per-view (PPV) from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on July 9, 2016.
