Former title challenger Chad Mendes banned.

Former UFC Featherweight title contender Chad 'Money' Mendes has been suspended by USADA for an anti doping violation stemming from a test collected on May 17th, 2016. It was then later revealed that Mendes tested positive for GHRP-6 which stands for Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide. Chad is now expected be be handed a 2 year suspension which would see him return in 2018 at the earliest stage. Mendes twice challenged former Featherweight king José Aldo for the title and came up short on both occasions, then Mendes recently took on 'The Notorious' Conor McGregor for the Interim UFC Featherweight Championship and was knocked out in the second round. Mendes most recently took on Frankie 'The Answer' Edgar and was KO'd in the first round and has not returned since. Unlike Jon Jones, Mendes immediately owned up for his errors and addmitted that he 'didn't do his homework' and how he 'owns it' and that he will 'pay for it'.
