Nine PFL fighters suspended by Nevada State Athletic Commission
Nine PFL fighters have been suspended by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, forcing the promotion to make major changes to its ongoing season. Seven PFL fighters, including former UFC title challenger Thiago Santos and former PFL heavyweight champion Bruno Cappelozza, appeared Thursday on the agenda for the next NSAC meeting. They will have their temporary suspensions extended Wednesday at the meeting in Las Vegas, likely making them ineligible for the duration of the PFL regular season, which starts up again in June. In a statement released this week, PFL said it has a "zero-tolerance policy related to the usage of banned substances" and is in talks with USADA about starting an anti-doping program. USADA leads the UFC's anti-doping policy and program.
