It won’t be pretty, but changes soon may be in store for the Nevada State Athletic Commission’s drug-testing protocols.

Shortly after the discovery of an allegedly bogus urine sample submitted by UFC 125 competitor Thiago Silva, NSAC Executive Director Keith Kizer informed his commission inspectors that they might have to, well, take a closer look in the locker room.
