Gracie fails drug test after fight with Sakuraba

After his recent fight with K. Sakuraba, video 1 of the fight, video 2 of the fight, video 3 of the fight, Royce Gracie failed his California State Athletic Commission drug test. Gracie was tested positive for Nandrolone, an anabolic steroid. Gracie said he will appeal, but meanwhile he has been suspended from June the 2nd. This heightens the question of whether there is a fair chance for a MMA to compete successfully in a field that is plagued with competitors using illegal substances to boost performance.
