Strikeforce will for the second time conduct independent drug testing of its competitors at an event.
Several fighters appearing on an upcoming fight card slated for June 18
at American Airlines Center in Dallas will be tested for drugs of abuse
and performance-enhancing drugs, Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker confirmed to
MMAjunkie.com via email.
Those included in the extra testing are all four of the participants
scheduled to compete in the second quarterfinal round of the Strikeforce
heavyweight grand prix, which kicked off Feb. 12 and resumes at the
June event.
