Cortney Casey's UFC 211 win vs. Jessica Aguilar overturned reportedly over failed drug test


A dominant win for strawweight Cortney Casey at UFC 211 is no more.

According to MMAFighting.com, which cites an open records request with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, Casey tested positive for elevated levels of testosterone during an in-competition screening, resulting in her unanimous-decision win over Jessica Aguilar to be overturned to a no-contest.

The change in Casey’s record (6-4-1 MMA, 2-3-1 UFC) has already been reflected on MixedMartialArts.com, which serves as the official record keeper for the Association of Boxing Commissions and Combative Sports.

The results of Casey’s drug test revealed her testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio at 5.4:1, well above the 4:1 limit in Texas. MMAFighting.com, citing sources, also reports that Casey has been issued a three-month suspension for the violation.

The UFC has not been in contact by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, its anti-doping partner, about Casey’s violation, according to UFC vice president of health and performance Jeff Novitzky.

The overturned result is disappointing for Casey, who was coming off a unanimous-decision loss to Claudia Gadelha last November and earned 30-27 scores over Aguilar from all three judges.
