Overeem Passes Conditional Drug Test; UFC 141 Bout With Brock Lesnar Official for Dec. 30

Alistair Overeem has met the first of three required stipulations of his conditional licensing in Nevada today as he passed his pre-fight urine test administered a few weeks ago in Holland.

Alistair Overeem has met the first of three required stipulations of his conditional licensing in Nevada today as he passed his pre-fight urine test administered a few weeks ago in Holland.

UFC president Dana White tweeted the news today.

The two remaining conditions “The Demolition Man” will have to meet to remain licensed by NSAC are that he will have to pass an additional test when he arrives in the U.S. for his upcoming December 30 UFC 141 bout with Brock Lesnar and he will also be required to submit to unannounced random testing over the next six months.

For those not keeping score, the Nevada commission nearly kaboshed the bout when Overeem failed to adhere to its request for a random pre-fight test within a reasonable amount of time, but relented and gave the former Strikeforce heavyweight fighter a second chance to right the situation by granting him the conditional license.
